    SAVANNAH, Ga. [[AP) — Organizers of a meeting to discuss an upcoming mayoral race in Georgia barred reporters from attending — unless they were African-American.
    The Wednesday meeting at a church in Savannah was held to try to unite the city’s black community behind a single candidate for mayor in the Nov. 5 election. Signs at the door said “Black Press Only!”
    White reporters were denied entry, while at least two black reporters and the publisher of a local African-American newspaper were allowed inside, the Savannah Morning News reported . Television cameras and recording devices were also prohibited.”Name:  AP_Black_Press_Only.jpg

    This is so wholly different. Public access restaurant that should be a place for everyone vs. private meeting of local black leaders with black media members. Black people do not need to defend themselves when they create a space for themselves.
