Another reason to admire Al Sharpton...

Hundreds of people are paying tribute to “Soul Train” creator Don Cornelius at a meeting in Harlem. About 300 people filled the hall at Al Sharpton’s headquarters Saturday to hear friends and fans recount memories of the TV pioneer.

Singer Roberta Flack calls Cornelius an inspiration for performers. Dancer Tyrone Proctor says Cornelius’ show pioneered dance moves that are staples of music videos and concerts today.

Proctor says Cornelius was also generous. When Proctor won a car on “American Bandstand,” “Soul Train’s” competition, Cornelius paid the taxes so the struggling dancer could receive his award.

Fan William Aponte says he was ecstatic as a kid when his idol, Elton John, appeared on the show. He says the appearance showed that people of all races could share common ground through music.

3. I wanted President Obama to appoint Al Sharpton to

be his press secretary. I think he would have been great at the job.

The daily press briefing would have been the highest rated show on TV.

How  are the ratings on his show?

4. Can you just imagine, say Fox, asking the Rev. Al one of their stupid, inane

questions and how he would have answered? Imagining that is my present entertainment...LOL...

Yep he would call the reporters racists.

They certainly have a lot of admiration for a pompous, ignorant, race- baiting goon who deliberately incited riots, got people killed with his venomous words, and did everything in his (Thankfully limited) power to try and have the film 'Barbershop' banned because he didn't like some of the things that one of the characters said in it (But don't forget, it's REALLY conservatives who believe in censorship and suspending everyone's 1st Amendment rights).

Carl, I posted the aftermath of what the Brawley family did after they moved to VA. Beach to an apartment complex my family lived in.  Post was perhaps 2 weeks ago ????

Funny I remembered the girl as being 8-9 years old, not 16. This was 20 years ago you know
