Black United Front: Racial profiling remains an issue

Two days after signing an historic agreement on racial profiling in Cincinnati, the Black United Front will hold a panel discussion to say that profiling remains an issue.
Tonight's event at the New Prospect Baptist Church will feature two nationally known civil rights leaders: Martin Luther King III, president of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, and activist Dick Gregory.

The racial profiling hearing, as organizers are calling it, will also feature the Rev. Damon Lynch III, president of the Black United Front, and Cincinnati lawyer Ken Lawson, who represented the front in its racial profiling lawsuit against the city.
The Rev. Mr. Lynch signed a settlement of that lawsuit Friday in a ceremony that included U.S. Attorney General John Ashcroft.
It will be the third of 10 such hearings sponsored by the Southern Christian Leadership Conference nationally.
At the first event, in Atlanta, Mr. King criticized the attorney general, saying that the civil rights his father fought for are now being taken away under the auspices of national security.
The second hearing was held in New York.
The forum begins at 6 p.m. at the church, 1829 Elm St., Over-the-Rhine.
