A black bourgeoisie perspective on U.S. politics
Got a tip from a twitter friend that this interview is online. It’s 23 minutes, and I haven’t had time to watch. Check it out, and share your thoughts on what she has to say and the types of questions she’s getting.
Here’s how they frame the interview:
The US presidential candidate Barack Obama wrote a book called ‘The Audacity of Hope’.
One of his most audacious hopes: that racial politics would no longer define a black man’s bid to become president of the United States.
Debra Lee is the chief executive of the biggest US TV network aimed at a black audience.
Has America really overcome the poisonous legacy of slavery?
