President Obama Uses N-Word, Says Country 'Not Cured' of Legacy of Slavery

Jun 22, 2015, 8:20 AM ET
President Obama used the n-word in a discussion of racism in America today, saying that “we’re not cured” of the “legacy of slavery” and Jim Crow despite having made strides in recent decades.
"It’s not just a matter of it not being polite to say n***** in public,” the president said during an interview with comedian Marc Maron for his “WTF” podcast. “That's not the measure of whether racism still exists or not. It's not just a matter of overt discrimination. Societies don't, overnight, completely erase everything that happened 200 to 300 years prior."

The woman slowly made her way into the background between the two anchors and ultimately shouted a variant of “are you angry, Don?” at the host ten times. Lemon and Berman seemed to keep their cool, though they gave the woman a look once or twice. “Terrorists! The president’s a puppet!” she added in her commentary. “Stop the lies.”
“Stop the lies. He’s an Uncle Tom too. President Obama’s an Uncle Tom too,” the woman said without skipping a beat. “Black folks, get off your knees and start praying.”
The duo went promptly to a commercial break and the woman was nowhere in sight when Berman came back on soon afterwards.

Well, I'm guessing it's like Native American tribal rights. You have to be like 1/4th Native to get the government tribal reparations.

So if you're not at least 1/4th black. I would stay away from it.

 

[Ronin Truth]

Yeah, black folks don't like them either.

Not I thanks anyway......

I'll use whatever derogatory terms about any nationality or ethnic group I damn well please and I'm ashamed that more folks don't have the intestinal fortitude to do the same.

This "A"-word bullshit is for children, if you actually mean asshole then say it.

I heard the whole conversation on that radio this morning. Not a big deal. He was describing his view on race and racism in America. He didn't give any power to the word and I actually agreed with the point he was making.

This 'media frenzy' is, once again, manufactured.

I thought the general public was happy now that everyone has health insurance and the food stamp rolls have grown .

A word of advice. Remain in predominantly white neighborhoods.

Haven't had to yet, no intention of behaving differently....

I'm just me, no false airs, no pulled punches and I tend to get along with most folks just fine.

Cornell West just said on CNN that Obama is "niggerized"

http://www.mediaite.com/tv/cornel-west-on-cnn-obama-is-americas-first-nggerized-president/

from the article:

Cornel West: “Look, you can’t talk about wealth inequality, you can’t talk about decrepit education, you can’t talk about massive unemployment and underemployment, and you can’t talk about drones being dropped on people in other parts of the world without talking about white supremacy, and its ways in which it operates,” he said.

Uh, I think you can. How many evil people kill and steal because they're racist vs. they want money and power? I'm guessing it leans in the direction of "I want more money and power" and less into "I hate the darkies". The Nazi mentality is really towards class more than race. "They" hate white trash too. Yes, the color the Nazi happens to be is going to slant that but Nazi is Nazi.

Cornel, talks about being a Christian and spiritual this and moral that, but he seems to just want to fuel the race angle and divide as well.

"For the love of money is the root of all evil", Cornel. Get a clue.

It's a race war dog whistle.
