2011 Statement Contradicts Claim From DNC Faith Outreach Head Harkins
Declared Harkins, in his statement to Metzger,
"I wanted to take a moment to let you know that that it came as a surprise to me that I was still listed as an Advisory Board member to the NHCLC. I have not had any connection with them or Sam Rodriguez in more than six years, and stand at polar opposites with Rev. Rodriguez on most issues. At the time when immigration reform was being debated in Congress (2006-2007), I was one of a very few African American clergy to voice my support. I gladly collaborated with a number of groups working toward the same end. Unfortunately since then Rev. Rodriguez has embraced some perspectives that differ from my own. I have no association with NHCLC, or the advisory board in any way, and will inform them to remove any reference to me. Thank You Derrick Harkins" [image, below: Rev. Derrick Harkins has been listed on the NHCLC Advisory Board since early 2009, according to cached pages of the NHCLC website retrieved from the Internet Archive]
