Uncle Tom Ward Connerly back in the news

[PhDiva]

when i consider people such as brother connerly--who i am SURE benefitted from affirmative action-- i have to ask a simple question:
when will we ever learn to stop being puns in the game?!

When white folks stop paying us to sell our souls. In 2004 alone, Connerly's ACRI (American Civil Rights Institute) received over $2.4 million dollars from conservative philanthropic foundations such as the Bradley, Scaife and Olin Foundations. Prop 209 was passed in 1996 so what do you think Stepinfetchit has been doing with this $2.4 million dollars? First, he has been opposing ethnic studies and ethnic student graduation celebrations at California's public universities. Next, he went on the warpath against HBCU's, HSIs (Hispanic Serving Institutions) and tribal colleges and finally he has been working on spreading Prop 209 across the country. At the end of the day, all that matters to Connerly is a profit.

See www.mediatransparency.org for a detailed list of all the folks that funded Connerlly and more information behind conservative media.
