Abstract
- Obama has been castigated in the black community for his failure to speak out against the Bell verdict in New York City. The ruling vindicated the right of police officers to fire 50 bullets and kill an unarmed young black man because they thought someone in the car might have been reaching down under the seat for a gun that didnt exist. Obama also failed to support March for the Jena 6 and of course, he was too busy to attend the State of the Black Union Forum for two years in a row, while Hillary managed to attend.
