"Just as Blacks took the white man’s religion and made it their own, Bell argues, it is necessary for them to take the white man’s law and make it Black folks’. - As Crenshaw says in the book’s final chapter, “If our slave ancestors could do so much with the Bible, we should be able to do no less with the Constitution.”

More 0bama Tapes: Michelle 0bama a Race Agitating Occupier?
A treasure trove of information is coming out regarding Barack 0bama’s time in college. - Over at the Breitbart sites, we are learning how 0bama inserted himself into a fight to implement hiring on the basis of race at Harvard Law School.
The 0bama tapes also seem to show the other 0bama – Michelle – occupying the Harvard Law School dean’s office. The occupiers were agitating for the race-based hiring of Harvard law professors.
The racialist fight at Harvard Law from 1988 to 1991 swirls around Professor Derrick Bell. As detailed over at Big Government, Professor Bell was a role model to law student Barack 0bama.
But he also openly advocated for a variety of racialist views wholly outside the American mainstream. Some of them are outright crazy. He deliberately used his position as a professor to teach racially charged theories of structural oppression by whites. 0bama, nevertheless, now famously urged us “to open up our hearts and minds to the words of Professor Derrick Bell.”
Barack might not be the only Obama on the tapes.
In May 1988, Harvard Law students, borrowing from Alinsky’s Rules for Radicals, and foreshadowing the Occupy movement of 2011, occupied the Harvard Law School’s dean’s office. - The students were supporting Professor Derrick Bell’s demand that the law school hire professors on the basis of race.
One of the students “dressed in black” and occupying the dean’s office appears to be Michelle 0bama (Harvard Law ’88). ... Here is a link to the grainy video. (lower right at about ten seconds in, wearing white Keds):
[See video at link.]
"...the Betamax video version leaves very little doubt it is her. - Perhaps someone in the mainstream media will ask the East Wing if Michelle 0bama participated in a trespassing occupation of the Harvard Law School dean’s office to demand race-based hiring of professors.
