This is an excellent exchange between the NAACP’s Bejamin Jealous and African-American tea party leader David Webb. I apologize for not having the transcript, but there are the main points: Jealous makes a good point about the New National Black Panther Party at 2:46. It is an excellent comparison between the NNPPA and the NAACP as opposed to the racist elements in the tea party movement. But a better point is made before than by Webb at 1:22.
