The Pale Reflection: Barack Obama, Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Meaning of the Black Revolution

The Pale Reflection: Barack Obama, Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Meaning of the Black Revolution

 

 

â€Å"The black revolution is forcing America to face all its interrelated flaws â€" racism, poverty, militarism and materialism.  It is exposing evils that are rooted deeply in the whole structure of society.  It reveals systemic rather than superficial flaws and suggests that radical reconstruction of society itself is the real issue to be faced.â€

Agreed - a cracking essay and a damn shame about the destruction. Link to the article below:

I note that President Obama has extended the Cuban blockade for another year

Change that we can truly believe in - bugger all change!

Too bad about destruction of this essay....
By Street, Paul

Damn shame about this - it was a nice  article if I do say so myself.  Readers may be able to find it by googling the same title and author along with "Black Agenda Report."  It was also done for BAR.
