Gateway Pundit today posted screen grabs from a 2008 interview of Obama Green Czar Van Jones seated in front of a large mural at the organization Jones founded, the Ella Baker Center for Human Rights.
The mural features on one side a white man shooting a Latino woman holding a child. On the other side it features a white man putting chains on a young Black man.

LOL! Obama played the race card on Bill. Bill was too dumb to not have the Kenyan BC or maybe he is biding his time.
These people are evil and the artwork is pretty bad too.
At least the white Hitler was a better artist. (sarc)

If Leftist aren’t careful they will spark major race wars in this country. That’s exactly what Jones would want. Watch him when, not if, when he gets kicked out of Washington.

Another picture that says a thousand words and they’re all pointing to Jones not being qualified for his position.
Thank goodness the people are doing what Obama wouldn’t allow our vetters to do.

And what’s far more important and sick is that it’s a depiction of MODERN DAY WHITES enslaving minorities.

They’re chains, not handcuffs.

Beck is right, it's not about Obama, it's about the movement of Progressives, the Unions, the Special Interest groups (ACORN, SEIU, Apollo Alliance) and THEIR agenda. Obama is their puppet!!!! And Van Jones is one of the Leaders of the movement.....
Van Jones has said: Barack Obama didn't create this movement. This movement created the opportunity for Obama. And we should never forget that.
More from Van Jones:
The problem now is that everyone is fixated on this one guy. This guy, without the movement that we've been building, is nowhere. The opportunity to go around the Clintons came off of us. It came off of the blogosphere, the anti-war movement, which had its origins prior to the anti-globalization movement, it came off of civil rights struggles and anti-immigration struggles and the struggles in this country that predated his speech at the (2004) convention and his opportunity to rise.
Not to insult Barack Obama, I say that to point out that his coalition has lots of contradictory elements inside of it. Some folks get this very deeply, some don't get it at all, some understand that when you talk about a green growth agenda for America, you are talking about unwinding trade agreements -- and some would be appalled to know that's in the fine print.
But none of that matters; what matters is that this movement not be confused about what it is. It is a movement of democratic mass sentiment in this country. This is a very rare thing, and we are going to have an engagement dividend as a result of turbulence of this political season. You have more people watching VP debates than watched "American Idol" -- that's not going to go away overnight.
The turbulence of the economic situation that we are in creates an interest on the part of ordinary people. The number one podcast in the world is now NPR's thing on money. And it's not about how to get rich; it is about how to understand global finance. That is an unbelievable development in U.S. and therefore, world politics. You are going to have an engagement dividend, no matter who wins this election.
All these people are not going to go back to watching "American Idol," and what has to happen is that the movement needs to be big enough -- the leadership, AlterNet, Huffington Post, all these have to be big enough on the media side, the organizing side -- groups like mine and the Apollo Alliance, MoveOn and whoever else, have to challenge the potential for a permanent engagement on the part of the American people.
Real democracy. I don't care if it is President Obama, President McCain or President Fill-in-the-blank. We can't take anyone on their word anymore because we just got taken to the bank by both parties.
People keep asking me questions about Senator Obama. I don't think we need a president to fix everything -- in fact, I don't think the president can fix everything. We just need a president to stop breaking everything. That is what you get with a President Obama. You hopefully get someone who will stop breaking everything and give us a chance to fix it.
This is scary stuff....

Please stop changing words from the ebonics language back to their native English format..
The correct spelling and pronunciation is “cracka” - the “er” in formal english is dropped and replaced with an soft “a” sound in its ebonics form

Uh, handcuffs are slim, stainless steel bracelets with a two- to four-inch stainless chain.
The image in the painting is of a thick, black cuff with a long chain. It LOOKS like a set of chains, and based upon the overall message of the painting I would have to say that even if the artist painted handcuffs they are certainly a metaphorical representation of a set of chains.
