Minitor did the sound last month for Strom Thurmond's huge Christmas part near Columbia and has a long connection with the senator.

 Most people reading this outside the US or who are younger might not know that Thurmond was a notorious lifelong white supremacist and segregationist. One of the worst and most infamous in all of America.

---------
https://segregationinamerica.eji.org/report/segregation-forever-leaders.html
Strom Thurmond was a prominent South Carolina politician and vocal segregationist. While governor of South Carolina, he led the Dixiecrat ticket in 1948 as the pro-segregationist presidential candidate; he won significant support in the South but lost the election. In 1954, Thurmond was elected to the Senate, where he grew in national influence as a leading opponent of civil rights. In 1956, he was a primary drafter of the Southern Manifesto, which denounced the Supreme Court’s 1954 decision in Brown v. Board of Education and encouraged Southern states to prevent public school integration. A staunch opponent of civil rights legislation, Thurmond famously staged a 24 hour filibuster to prevent passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1957. He also opposed the Voting Rights Act of 1965 and its reauthorization in 1975. Thurmond served 48 years in the Senate and died in 2003 at the age of 100. He never publicly renounced his segregationist views.

On top of that, a serial petty criminal, check forger and batterer. Not sure what to make of handing out porn to minors. And some of his crimes came decades after he became an ordained Christian minister. In some nondenominational churches, becoming a pastor is incredibly easy, a couple months of Bible college.

I'm accessing the Aiken Standard newspaper of Aiken N.C. through Newspaper Archive via my public library online. So I don't have a way to provide links.

In 1989 police log he is listed as arrested for forged check. Then in 1993 under Police Bookings for "Melvin Martin Minitor, 40 - fraudulent check, distributing obscene material to minors, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute". This in Aiken Standard February 20, 1993 Page 9.

The public records I've accessed to add to this thread include Family Search, Find a Grave, SC court records, Aiken Standard newspaper via Newspaper Archive, general googling, and the Wayback Machine/Internet Archive.

Mel Minitor Jr is an ordained minister through the church his father founded. Cavalry Road Ministries in Langley, SC.

Quote
The Executive Director of Calvary Road Ministries, Brother Melvin Minitor Sr. has over 50 years of experience as a Pastor and Field Evangelist, God's blessings can be seen with visible evidence of over 34,000 souls saved since June of 1988 to July 2007. What is the goal of Calvary Road Ministries? To have Calvary Road Team Members in Migrant Camps, working with Ethnic Groups in Jails, Shut Ins, Nursing Homes, Military Establishments, Street Meetings, Housing Projects, Missions and Churches, to reach specific people groups through: Home Bible Studies, Preaching, Public Meetings, Witnessing, Tracts and New Testaments and Bible Distributions, and Door to Door Visitation.

They worked to convert farm-workers and incarcerated people.

Example in archives of Mel Minitor Jr. involvement https://web.archive.org/web/20101229162151/https://calvaryroad.net/

I scrolled through several decades worth mentions of this family in Aiken Standard Newspaper archives. Absolutely nothing backs up or even hints at Mel's heritage claims.

Article on Mel Minitor Jr's recording studio business endeavors in Aiken County Register, January 11, 1984 identifies him as a "son of Baptist minister". He was 31 years old at the time. The article is extensive. He's a white boy.

"Rev. Mel is a Licensed ordained minister that will do Christian and Non-Christian weddings."

"Mel Minitor aka Rev Mel, is the go-to person for couples looking to work with us."

His mother Edna E. Minitor. Her parents Henry Lamar Eubanks https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/82049323/henry-lamar-eubanks and  Ida Dicks Eubanks https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/82049365/ida_edna_eubanks .

This is the side our Mel claims heritage. "Our heritage being of Creek/PeeDee, who intermarried with Powhatan and trace back to Chief Japasaw. If our family historian is correct, we would be the 12th great-grandchildren of Chief Japasaw."

"My grandparents were dark skinned", Mel says he asked them about Native American heritage, and that they replied "we don't talk about that".

These families all white in vital records. Obits of his parents do not mention anything native/tribal involvement.

His name is Mel Minitor Jr. He identifies as this in his preface to book "A Life Most Magical" and in some Facebook posts.
Copyright notice for book is "Mel Standing Eagle PC - Mel Minitor".

In his book he writes that his father's heritage is German and Irish. Mother's a "mix of English and Native American".
