Sooner or later, black Americans are going to have to disown Oba Mao. He is NOT a descendant of slaves. More than likely, his Daddy was a descendant of slave traders who were mainly forced to give up that sorry trade by British warships patrolling the coast of Kenya and Somalia a quarter century or so after our Civil War.

Real descendants of American slaves who have done real research into their family tree like Alex Haley of Roots fame have discovered that slaves originated overwhelmingly from west central Africa. The slave traders overwhelmingly originated from northeast Africa, notably Kenya, Somalia and Sudan, the only place where it is still practiced today.

So Zero's ancestors have more responsibility for slavery in America than your average white guy's ancestors.

No, “activist” black Americans will NEVER disown 0bama until we stop reading articles like this, where race is gratuitously thrown in despite it’s patent irrelevance. It’s the same group of black Americans who will not disown other black Americans who commit crimes. I practice criminal law, and I often have the black client whose family and friends claim he was arrested or is being harshly prosecuted simply because he is black. My usual response is that if they want the claim of racism taken seriously, they ought to seriously consider NOT COMMITTING CRIMES. It doesn’t help a claim of racism that the police found cocaine, guns and counterfeit checks in the stolen car they crashed during the high-speed pursuit.

No, too many blacks see the bogeyman of racism behind every bush and tree; they will not disown 0bama.
