During the height of the presidential season, the candidates had to tell their “story”. Part of Barack Obama’s “story” was his race. He did not want it to be a focus of him and didn’t want his “race” to come into play. The thing is that he was always perceived as “black” and this did come up from him and others repeatedly. This was only because his skin looked as if he was black. He is also Caucasian. He is multi racial. Although it seems as if the country is overcoming racism, this in a way does not prove that. Barack Obama is still considered black.
Can we not overcome distinguishing someone by their skin color?
