I expect Rush would call giving attention to African-American concerns "racist."

			On March 16, 1827, the first African-American newspaper, <SPAN class="media_outlet">Freedom's Journal</SPAN>, began publication in New York. During its short but significant two-year run, <SPAN class="media_outlet">Freedom's Journal</SPAN> established the central role of the independent black press in the United States. In particular, the editors pledged to serve their readers in ways that the white press would not, by providing accurate information about African-American leadership and concerns; by covering relevant issues and events that other newspapers failed to acknowledge; and by printing perspectives absent in the white press. </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.fair.org/index.php?page=2020"><DIV>
