Pulpit Forum press conference Friday
GREENSBORO - The Pulpit Forum will announce Friday its strategy for opposing the Aug. 21 recall election of Councilwoman T. Dianne Bellamy-Small.
Members of the predominantly black ministerial group will reveal their plan at 11 a.m. Friday at Bethel AME Church at 200 Regan St.
A spokeswoman for the group, Deborah Compton-Holt, declined Thursday to talk about the plan.
Pulpit Forum President Eva Ratliff, Vice President Nelson Johnson and Secretary Gregory Headen didn't return telephone calls Thursday. In a pamphlet published by the group, Headen urged the community to become involved the defeating the recall.
"The situation with T. Dianne Bellamy-Small is another glaring example in Greensboro of how those who speak out for the poor are demonized and marginalized by power," wrote Headen, pastor of Genesis Baptist Church.

They must be talking about themselves. Especially when they talk about... "those who speak out for the poork, are demonized and marginalized by power". They need to check on their "flocks," to see if the other "herds," don't get to them first.
