Dear Sir
UAAD has negotiated with Bank One, now JPMorganChase Bank, a CRA agreement to benefit African Americans. UAAD’s position and others is that CRA is and should be treated as Civil Rights Legislation. In 2004 JPMorgan apologized and admitted to its involvement with the slave trade.
See: http://www.uaadcorp.com/ UAAD also posts on MoveOn.com.
We invite you as a keynote speaker to address students and the community regarding these issues. We would also like to discuss your participation and serving as a board member of UAAD.
The proposed dates for this forum is early May 2006. If these dates conflict with your schedule, could you suggest a later date in April. Your participation and attendance would be appreciated. We would like you or a representative to attend.
Please confirm if you are able to attend either by email (uedcinc@aol.com) or by telephone (866-276-2294)

Sincerely,
Walter L. Ellis, CEO of UAAD
