It has become a painful and dangerous truth that to discover what is going on in the Obama administration, particularly on matters of race, you have to read the British press.
This has been proven again as the prestigious “Independent UK” published an article entitled “Barack Obama hands more senior jobs than ever before to ‘sisterhood’ of black women. President Barack Obama has engineered a quiet racial revolution in Washington,” giving more power to blacks than at any point in American history.
It went on to say that while Obama plays down the influence of race in his government and policies, Washington insiders are watching as he hands control of American domestic policy, White House social events, environmental issues, food safety and other issues impacting on Americans to African Americans, particularly African American women.
Obama used his press conference last week to joke that interest in his own race lasted "about a day" after his election. But below the radar, Obama has been quietly transforming the upper echelons of government into one where blacks hold power far beyond their numbers in the general population.
The article stressed the influence of black women, claiming that they hold “only” 192,000 of more than 1.7 million government jobs. This means that black women who constitute 6% of the population hold 12% of federal government jobs. This will grow drastically under Obama as will packing black men into the federal bureaucracy.
