“I’m running against 20 rich white folks,” veteran activist Coffee Wright told the crowd at the Black Is Back Coalition’s national Electoral School, in St. Louis, Missouri. “I’m definitely supporting” the 19 points of the National Black Political Agenda for Self-Determination, formulated by the Coalition. “It’s on my flyers, it’s on my posters, it’s on my web site, and I ain’t scared to say it,” said Ms. Wright, who is running as a Democrat.
