FLOTUS plays race card: Museums are for white people

First lady Michelle Obama used a speech Monday that was supposed to be celebrating the opening of a new museum to instead dig deeper the racial divide that’s been growing ever wider during her husband’s presidency.

“Museums and concert halls,” she said, just don’t welcome non-white visitors – especially children – the way they welcome whites.

Speaking at the new Whitney museum in New York City’s meat packing district last week, Obama said she grew up thinking that museums were not places “for someone who looks like me.”

Every thing is about race with this family! Actually museums have always welcomed everyone, you have to act accordingly in one. You must be quiet and show respect. I am sure some parents know it is not a proper place for their children at an early age. But as a child grows they are able to follow the rules and enjoy all that a museum has to offer...Not sure why Michelle never felt welcome in one.

"Not sure why Michelle never felt welcome in one. "

Because she was raised in a Commie Family?

For the 1st time in my life, I am truly ashamed of and embarrassed by FLOTUS.

Museums are for literate people. Folks that don’t read don’t appreciate museums.

Maybe if it was named the Darkney Museum she might feel more comfortable.

Because they don’t want the places trashed and destroyed.

Maybe she misread the name of the museum to say Whitey Museum.

You've got that right. It would be funny, if it weren't for the very corrosive and destructive nature of their comments.

What's next? Gas stations are for white people? Stationary stores are for white people?
