Yes, the national office of the Federation is saying that the issue of my expulsion is "terribly unimportant" (words of Marc Maurer in a letter to me). Yet the national president has come to Massachusetts four times in the last two and a half months to carry out the campaign against me and those who stood up for my defense. An "organizing team" was sent in December specifically to rebuild the Boston chapter after valuable members including the chapter president resigned in protest of my expulsion. It is not ordinary for the national president to be part of a team to re-organize a local chapter, but he has come twice for this purpose. Rumor has it that Dr. Jernigan himself is scheduled to attend the state convention of the NFB of Massachusetts this coming April. Terribly unimportant? Let people draw their own conclusions. --Jamal-- -- Uucp: ..!{decvax,oliveb}!bunker!hcap!hnews!101!460.0!Jamal.Mazrui Internet: Jamal.Mazrui@p0.f460.n101.z1.fidonet.org
