Barack Obama has been sharing more insight into life with his family while promoting his newest memoir, A Promised Land. In a new cover story for People, the former president revealed that his daughters, Malia and Sasha Obama, both participated in racial justice demonstrations earlier this year.

According to President Obama, they "felt the need to participate" in the nationwide protests that took place following the unjust murders of Black Americans including George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, and Ahmaud Arbery, and wanted to be part of the resounding call for justice.

"I didn't have to give them a lot of advice because they had a very clear sense of what was right and what was wrong and [of] their own agency and the power of their voice and the need to participate," he said of his daughters. "Malia and Sasha found their own ways to get involved with the demonstrations and activism that you saw with young people this summer, without any prompting from Michelle and myself, on their own initiative."

He continued, "They didn't do it in a way where they were looking for limelight. They were very much in organizer mode," adding, "I could not have been prouder of them."

The former president also shared that though his girls, who are now both in college, have seemingly inherited a bit of his organizing spirit, he doesn't envision them branching out into politics in the near future but rather sees them being "active citizens."

"They're reflective of their generation in the sense they want to make a difference and they think about their careers in terms of: How do I have a positive impact? How do I make the world better?" he said. "What particular paths they take in doing that, I think are going to change and vary between

Malia and Sasha Obama are likely on the purer side of ‘social justice’. I doubt either of them believes in killing cops or destroying cities.

Time will tell...

Freepers are also activists - who believe in justice and fairness for our country. We wouldn’t be here if we didn’t want sensible change.

The difference is in definition...

I would hope Malia and Sasha Obama are NOT Marxist - both seem smarter than the type of people who would buy into a system that has failed to producer what it promises repeatedly AND worse - attacks bottom of the barrel totalitarian thugs once it’s established. If Marx was alive today - and could see what his system has produced he would denounce it.

While I wouldn’t be surprised, this smells like super-pandering to the freak crowd.

When Chelsea Clinton was younger, I had a similar assumption of her, that she might even grow to rebel against her parents. No longer. She drank the kool-aid, and reaps the elite's rewards. Funny how that happens.

I question this. IF they’d been involved the media would have made them the face of the movement.

Really?

Can you point us to a single interview or published statment that establishs or even points to their intelligence? (sources that also called Mike O'Bama a fashion diva are not acceptable)

Obama’s not much of a father, letting his daughters hang around BLM Marxist scum, who do not have a good history on how to treat young women. The Marxists usually use them, abuse them and toss them in the gutter.

I had hopes for Chelsea too... no more. What a mistake. Maybe the difference is the only thing the Clinton’s ‘believed’ in was betterment for the Clintons. I don’t see the Obama’s that way...

NO! NO! NO! It's bad enough that is was possibly an expired credit card, but let's stick to reality, FRiend.

Stupid and dangerous.

BLM is a subversive organization dedicated to destroying our society overthrowing our government and should be classified as a Terrorist Organization.

The only reason it hasn’t been so classified is because the Get-Out-Of-Jail-Free-word “Black” is in their title claiming hands off due to “racism”.

“Racism” can take a flying leap. These people and this organization should be illegal, disbanded, and active members, contributors, and leaders indicted period.
