"We must never be intimidated by another man's ideas and we must never rush
to silence free speech. It does not matter how we feel about Justice
Thomas."
-- NAACP President Kweisi Mfume, Jan. 15, 1997, at a Martin Luther
King Jr. Day celebration in which he scolded the Maryland state chapter for
threatening to protest a speech by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence
Thomas.
