Barack Obama Sets Down For Martin Luther King Day With “We Are One” Speech

And it is a particularly happy one.
Tomorrow Barack Obama will be sworn in as our country’s 44th President, decades after Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s untimely death over his struggle to bring racial equality to this nation.
To commemorate the fact, take a little time to listen to Obama’s speech from this weekend’s “We Are One” event.
These aren’t, uh, aren’t tears. Our eyes were just. Leaky.
Anyway. We’re off for the rest of today, but we’ll be back tomorrow. See you then!

Contrary to popular belief on this website, not all Latinos are messing their pants over this smooth-talking lawyer’s empty promises and even emptier speeches. Hussein will do for the black community about as much as Ricardo Montalban did for the Latino community. Squat. I don’t see Hussein appointing brothers and sisters to his administration, just more of the same ‘ol white folks that have gotten us to where we are in the first place. He was raised as a middle-class/Ivy League white boy who’s father was an absent African (not american) man. Neither of his parents or sides of his family have lived or represent the struggle of the African-AMERICAN community in this country. Wake up. He might as well be Bill Clinton up there in blackface.
