In Obama’s case, the A Theology of Black Liberation by James H. Cone was all he needed. He learned that:

“To be Christian is to be one of those whom God has chosen. God has chosen black people!”

“Malcolm X was not far wrong when he called the white man ‘the devil.”

“complete emancipation of black people from white oppression by whatever means black people deem necessary.”

“The time has come for white America to be silent and listen to black people”

“All white men are responsible for white oppression”

“There is, then, a desperate need for a black theology, a theology whose sole purpose is to apply the freeing power of the gospel to black people under white oppression.”

“Black theology refuses to accept a God who is not identified totally with the goals of the black community. If God is not for us and against white people, then he is a murderer, and we had better kill him. The task of black theology is to kill Gods who do not belong to the black community. Black theology will accept only the love of God which participates in the destruction of the white enemy. What we need is the divine love as expressed in Black Power, which is the power of black people to destroy their oppressors here and now by any means at their disposal. Unless God is participating in this holy activity, we must reject his love.”

“While it is true that blacks do hate whites, black hatred is not racism.”

“If there is any contemporary meaning of the Antichrist, the white church seems to be a manifestation of it.”

Fortunately, unlike his predecessor, Obama reads! Not quite sure he will have time to read much after inauguration. He will be very busy fixing this BIG mess we are in!
