Talk:List of African-American United States Cabinet members

Merge with List of African American United States Cabinet Secretaries?
Right now, this article doesn't seem that notable by itself; just a basic miniscule list. I think expanding it with a main list of black Secretaries might be a good idea. NuclearWarfare  ( Talk ) 05:18, 16 January 2009 (UTC)

 * I will start creating that article. NuclearWarfare  ( Talk ) 21:40, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I can help.— Chris!  c t 00:11, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
 * One problem I ran into while looking over a list of black secretaries is that all but like three are already mentioned on this page. I am unsure of how we should set it up, because most cabinet positions would have either 0, 1, or 2 people. NuclearWarfare  ( Talk ) 00:41, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
 * I think we can just follow the format used on List of female United States Cabinet Secretaries. It seems to work very well.— Chris!  c t 01:19, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

Louis Wade Sullivan
Louis Wade Sullivan served as the Secretary of Health and Human Services during the elder George Bush's administration (1989-1993). Can someone please add him to the chart?

July, 2013 Update Request
This article needs to be updated to reflect the confirmation of Anthony Foxx as Secretary of Transportation. I attempted to do it myself, but the "edit preview" indicated that I would have messed up the wiki-table formatting. --TommyBoy (talk) 22:13, 24 July 2013 (UTC)
 * Nevermind, the article has been updated. --TommyBoy (talk) 01:06, 25 July 2013 (UTC)

February, 2014 Update Request
This article needs to be updated to reflect the confirmation of Jeh Johnson as Secretary of Homeland Security. I attempted to do it myself, but the "edit preview" indicated that I would have messed up the wiki-table formatting. --TommyBoy (talk) 15:46, 25 February 2014 (UTC)


 * Added Jeh Johnson.--Mitchumch (talk) 20:55, 25 February 2014 (UTC)

Hyphen?
I'm not sure what the wikipedia manual of style currently has to say about "African-American" v. "African American". Article is currently inconsistent. If anyone can point me to this, I'd appreciate it! CAVincent (talk) 07:48, 16 February 2022 (UTC)
