Jordan Blasts PLC Overtures
Vernon E. Jordan, president of the National Urban League, warned that Black support for Palestinian terrorists would endanger Black Jewish ties and urged building powerful cross race alliances. Jewish groups welcomed his stance amid recent high profile trips by Lowery and Jackson to meet PLO leaders. Bayard Rustin condemned the trips as dangerous to coalition efforts with Jews and civil rights groups.
