Sen. Barack Obama's former pastor, Rev. Jeremiah Wright, has garnered much media attention for his contentious comments seen on YouTube and elsewhere. Now he'll be appearing with a member of the media at a Detroit NAACP event.

Wright will give the keynote address at the 53rd Annual Fight For Freedom Fund Dinner on April 27. CNN anchor Soledad O'Brien will serve as a special guest announcer for the dinner.

A special preview of O'Brien's CNN documentary, "Blacks in America," will be shown at the event.
