Scott Wickham believes Tavis Smiley's State of the Black Union forum Feb. 27 -- outlined briefly in Charles Odum's Associated Press (via Philadelphia Inquirer) article "'Contract' urged for black issues" and blogged at, among other places, Uppity-Negro -- deserves a counter, so he's put up a Wiki at Contract for Black America.

The Old Grey Lady has Neela Banerjee's registration-required article "Black Churches Struggle Over Their Role in Politics" (via Prometheus 6), "Thinking Outside the Icebox," a Z.Z.
