I served with him when he was mayor and know t ,t over 36 percent of his appointments went to minorities. He made si^e that minority businesses got a fair share of city contracts. He supported the Fair Housing Ordinance. He worked hard for a successful summer jobs program that employed many of our disadvantaged youths. Eddie Knox has been with us for years. He is not like some candidates who just recently decided to show good will tovrard black citizens. Nor is he throwing money around trjmg to buy the black vote. You can be sure that Eddie Knox has a long standing record of supporting issues which affect us. North Carolina needs Eddie Knox as governor.
