Wright's words and the sycophants who stand by him prove the chasm of misunderstanding between the races is becoming an abyss that they are all to willing to throw taxpayer money and their future generations into. Obama's campaign of change has been revealed as more of the same.

This "conversation on race" as Obama phrased it is just more guilt tripping and extortion of whitey and reparations talk. Totally phony and ridiculous. The opportunities are there for any industrious black child or adult. They were not there 50 years ago but they are there today. The worst part is how the schools in black areas are often turned into hellholes but is not the doing of the white man. It's fault of Black people

The black communities of America had their act together a lot better in the bad old days of segregation and little welfare. Back when Rev Wright was a little boy

Absolutely. Obama has been feeding the hatred of the government while preaching that more government entitlements will solve their problems. Wright had just taken it a bit too far but the message is essentially the same.

If he really wanted change he would be speaking out about self reliance in the black community. Instead he just wants to breed more reliance on a paternal government that simply maintains the state of poverty while eliminating the need for a family breadwinner.
