Tea Party Plans "Uni-Tea" Race Summit
The Huffington Post reports that the Tea Party is planning a summit to respond to allegations of racism:
Tea Party leaders plan to hold a summit this summer to address recent charges of racism made against the conservative movement.
A Philadelphia, Pa. Fox affiliate reports on the event scheduled to take place on July 31 at Independence Mall in Philadelphia:
"The rally, called Uni-Tea, will feature white and black Tea Party supporters in all-day event that will feature live music, a web cast and plenty of Obama bashing.
The site for the event features 13 speakers, with at least 8 speakers being persons of color."
(Then-candidate Obama delivered an address on race in Philadelphia during the 2008 presidential campaign.)
David Webb, co-founder of the group TeaParty365, first proposed the idea of holding a "tea summit" in an appearance on CBS's "Face the Nation" over the weekend.
