“The disjointed assembly of black academics, civil rights activists and conservatives that gathered at the National Press Club in Washington D.C. in late May had only one goal in mind: To stop passage of the Senate’s immigration reform bill. They formed what they called the Choose Black America Coalition. The Federation for Immigration Reform, which has been the loudest and most relentless in opposing any concessions to immigration rights groups, sponsored their news conference.

The coalition didn’t stop the bill, but it sent another noisy message that many blacks oppose immigration reform. Coalition members vowed to stage rallies, join the Minuteman Project, patrol the border and publicly denounce black Democrats and civil rights groups that back immigrant rights.”
