I don't believe this is what Ralph Ellison meant by the "Invisible Man"...
Atrios provides us with a link to Grover Norquist's African American Republican Leadership Council, a place that I have never visited before. So I'm, like, checking it out and I decide to go check out the Black GOP in Congress Hall of Champions. Boy, was that one quiet room. Of course every page needs a little padding to give these guys the look of "Somethings happening here, What it is ain't exactly clear", so they decided to list all African-Americans in Congress, not just the GOP list which would be embarassingly small and about to become non-existant with the departure of JC Watts. Now I won't list all of the former black members of Congress, only the current ones, because, well, it's very informative:
Rep. Major Owens(D-NY)-- 1983-present
Rep. Edolphus Towns (D-NY)-- 1983-present
Rep. John Lewis (D-GA)--1987-present
Rep. Donald Payne (D-NJ)-- 1989-present
Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton (D-D.C.)-- 1991-present
Rep. William Jefferson (D-LA)-- 1991-present
Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA)-- 1991-present
Rep. Eva Clayton (D-NC)-- 1992-present
Rep. Sanford Bishop (D-GA)-- 1993-present
Rep. Corrine Brown (D-FL)-- 1993-present
Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC)-- 1993-present
Rep. Cleo Fields (D-LA)-- 1993-96
Rep. Alcee Hastings (D-FL)--1993-present
Rep. Earl Hilliard (D-AL)--1993-present
Rep. Eddie Bernice Johnson (D-TX)-- 1993-present
Rep. Cynthia McKinney (D-GA)-- 1993-present
Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL)-- 1993-present
Rep. Bobby Scott (D-VA)-- 1993-present
Rep. Mel Watt (D-NC)-- 1993-present
Rep. Albert Wynn (D-MD)-- 1993-present
Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS)-- 1993-present
Rep. Chaka Fattah (D-PA)-- 1995-present
Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX)-- 1995-present
Rep. Julius Caesar Watts (R-OK)-- 1995-present
Rep. Jesse Jackson, Jr. (D-IL)-- 1995-present
Rep. Juanita Millender-McDonald (D-CA)-- 1996-present
Rep. Elijah Cummings (D-MD)-- 1996-present
Rep. Julia Carson (D-IN)-- 1997-present
Delegate Donna Christian-Christensen (D-VI)-- 1997-present
Rep. Danny K. Davis (D-IL)-- 1997-present
Rep. Harold Ford, Jr. (D-TN)-- 1997-present
Rep. Carolyn Cheeks Kilpatrick (D-MI)-- 1997present-
Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY)-- 1998-present
Rep. Barbara Lee (D-CA)-- 1998-present
Rep. Stephanie Tubbs Jones (D-OH)-- 1999-present
Rep. William Clay, Jr. (D-MO)-- 2001-present
One of these things is not like the others, can you guess which one?
