Its weird that you inadvertently acknowledge the effect of slavery in this country on black americans by using Barack Obama as an example of affirmative action gone awry(?)

Those experiences of the descendants of slaves you mentioned are the reasons why race is so important when it comes to building wealth and prosperity in your community.

So why are you celebrating someone who, bar melanin, had as much to do with that as the average Albanian?
