In an interview with Chris Wallace on Fox News Sunday, Barack Obama again fabricated the background of the Rev. Jeremiah Wright to try to excuse his longtime pastor’s denunciations of America and of whites.Referring to racial discrimination, violence, and segregation, Obama said Wright “went through experiences that I never went through.”
In his speech on race in Philadelphia, Obama made similar claims. He described a “lack of economic opportunity among black men, and the shame and frustration that came from not being able to provide for one’s family . . .”
Obama said this was “the reality in which Reverend Wright and other African-Americans of his generation grew up . . . For the men and women of Reverend Wright’s generation, the memories of humiliation and doubt and fear have not gone away; nor has the anger and the bitterness of those years.”
But as detailed in an April 13 Newsman article, “Obama’s Rev. Wright Mythology,” Obama’s characterization of his mentor’s upbringing is untrue.
