A mayoral candidate forum in Savannah, Georgia barred whitey from reporting on the event. “No audio or video recording!” read one sign, while another read “No media (T.V., radio, etc.) Black Press Only!”

This forum was organized by Rev. Clarence Teddy Williams and was intended to serve as a vehicle for galvanizing the black vote to support one black candidate for mayor, rather than split the vote between three potential candidates. Oddly enough, it took place at a Baptist church.

Who would Jesus ban?

With signs stating “Black press only” on the doors of the church where the meeting was held, white reporters were barred from entry, while black reporters for at least two television stations were permitted inside. The event was coordinated by the Rev. Clarence Teddy Williams, owner of the consulting firm, The Trigon Group, who declined to discuss the entry policy. Savannah Alderman Estella Shabazz, who also attended, said that she had once owned a newspaper and she was a member of the black press, but she declined to comment – when repeatedly pressed – on the policy barring white reporters from going inside. While notes were allowed, photos, video and audio recordings were prohibited during the event, according to Stephen Moody, an African-American reporter with WJCL who was allowed entry.

Shirley James, the African-American publisher of the black-owned Savannah Tribune, was also seen going into the meeting.

The candidates are each playing coy on whose idea it was:
