04/19/16 The McCulloch Minute " Did Obama Betray the Black Community?"

Audio By Carbonatix

I THINK I MAY HAVE FIGURED OUT ONE OF THE REASONS WE ARE FACING SUCH RACIALLY MOTIVATED DIDVISION IN THIS COUNTRY.  MANY OF YOU WILL DISAGREE WITH THIS THEORY, BUT HEAR ME OUT.  THE DAY AFTER THE ELECTION IN 2008 I REMEMBER HOW MANY PEOPLE OF COLOR WERE RUNNING AROUND DOWNTOWN DETROIT, WHERE I WORKED, AND OPENLY CELEBRATING THE ELECTION OF THE FIRST BLACK PRESIDENT.  WHILE HE WAS NOT MY CHOICE, FOR WHAT ARE NOW OBVIOUS REASONS, I SHARED IN THE HOPE THAT THINGS WOULD GET BETTER FOR THE BLACK COMMUNITY.  IT TURNS OUT THAT THE OPPOSITE HAS OCCURRED.   THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS DIVIDED, LEADERLESS, UNEMPLOYED IN EMBARRASSING NUMBERS, AND BASICALLY WONDERING WHERE ALL THIS HOPE AND CHANGE DISAPPEARED TO.  WELL FOLKS, IT WAS NEVER THERE.  HE HAD NO INTENTION OF HELPING THE BLACK COMMUNITY.  HE HAD NO INTENTION OF UNIFICATION SO WE COULD ALL PROSPER TOGETHER.  INSTEAD HE HAS IGNORED THE CRIES OF THE BLACK COMMUNITY. HE HAS IGNORED THE INCREDIBLE SLAUGHTER OF BLACK LIVES BY OTHER BLACKS.  THE MUSLIM COMMUNITY SEEMS TO GET MOST OF HIS ATTENTION. IN SHORT, THE BLACK COMMUNITY IS IN AN UPROAR BECAUSE PRESIDENT OBAMA HAS BETRAYED THEM.  SOME WILL LAUGH AT THIS OPINION.  FINE.  ALL I ASK IS THAT YOU CONSIDER IT.  ALL OF YOU.  I’M JOHN MCCULLOCH.
