Black America contemplates uncertain future under Bush administration

WASHINGTON�Despite his appointment of two Blacks to high positions in his administration, the Black community is cautiously sizing-up President-elect George W. Bush as he adjusts himself in the country�s seat of power.   �He�s going to have to get beyond the symbolism of Condoleezza Rice and Colin Powell,� said Dr. Ronald Walters, professor of political science at the University of Maryland, regarding the appointments to the posts of secretary of state and national security adviser, respectively. �That sure ain�t enough.�

by Minister Louis Farrakhan
