"lie, why do you lie to defend racists ?" It isn't a lie. Harry was there as President and CEO of the Black Chamber of Commerce. And, as such, was speaking for tthe BCoC which styles itself as the voice of black businessmen. This is their mission statement Mission Statement The National Black Chamber of Commerce is dedicated to economically empowering and sustaining African American communities through entrepreneurship and capitalistic activity within the United States and via interaction with the Black Diaspora. nationalbcc.org As Z correctly noted, Harry wasn't there as a US citizen, he was there as a self-appointed spokesperson for black businesses.
