THE WHITE HOUSE
WASHINGTON
MEMORANDUM
TO:
Ann Stock
From:
Ben Johnson
RE:
African American Clergy event
Date:
January 11, 1995
I am faxing the list of African American clergy
received from Carol Willis. This list is final and the
ministers are listed in priority order. Invites should
go to the top forty names on the list. If someone from
the top 40 is unable to attend, then go to the next
person on the list. Many of these people have been
invited to the White House before so please check to
see if you have addresses and phone numbers on file.
Get back to me ASAP on the ones you don't have.
CC Alexis Herman
