Former President Barack Obama published a piece on Medium addressing the protests nationwide following the death of George Floyd -- and, specifically, how he thinks people can move forward to"sustain momentum to bring about real change."
"Ultimately, it’s going to be up to a new generation of activists to shape strategies that best fit the times," he wrote."But I believe there are some basic lessons to draw from past efforts that are worth remembering." His message overall put forth the importance of voting and participating in politics, particularly at the local level, where decisions on ground-level criminal justice and police practices are formed.
The"bottom line" he wrote is that"if we want to bring about real change, then the choice isn’t between protest and politics. We have to do both. We have to mobilize to raise awareness, and we have to organize and cast our ballots to make sure that we elect candidates who will act on reform.
Yahoo 这个傻比啊！
Cashing in on death of Mr. Floyd...something Obama would do...
You're not the president (worse we have ever had)! Go live in your mansion with your 'for the first time in my adult life, I am proud to be an american' wife and be quiet!
Yes, it will be good to get back to work, especially for Americans who have enjoyed the lowest black unemployment rate EVER with Donald Trump as President. Don't fall for the leftist politics of victimhood. Stand beside your fellow Americans and vote Donald Trump in 2020
Pretty easy to see the difference in behavior between two former presidents, Bush and Obama. The former is all class, while the latter is just an ass.
I wish Obama had done more to unite and move forward...he had 8 years, 8 years to make it better for US. He blew it big time! BarackObama CNN FoxNews dbongino
He is pretty good leader. As a mixed race guy, born to a white mother, raised by white grandparents in a white neighborhood and now surrounded by all white friends, he has the ability to have a diverse view.
