Barack Obama’s Speech on Race

Although I missed the speech on television, I read the transcript to Barack Obama’s “We Have a Choice” speech on race which we recently published on Newspaper Tree. If you haven’t taken the time to read it, make the time so that you can join the national conversation that so few of us are brave enough to have.

In response to all things Obama, we published another great column on Newspaper Tree, “El Paso Won’t Vote for a Black Man” by Marc Williams. Williams begs the question of NPT readers why does “the notion of an African American president of the United States elicit such antipathy from the Mexican community?”

    FYI, Obama’s name is misspelled. It is Barack with a “c”, not Barak. :)
