CORNEL WEST CRITICIZES OBAMA’S USE OF MLK BIBLE AT INAUGURATION

Subject

The legacy of Martin Luther King Jr. and its significance in contemporary politics

Description

Professor and activist Cornel West has made no secret about his disdain for President Barack Obama.

He has called the president a “Republican in Blackface” and, along with talk show host Tavis Smiley, he has regularly excoriated him for not doing enough to address urban poverty in America.

Now West is lashing out at Obama for using a restored Bible which once belonged to the late Martin Luther King Jr. during his inauguration ceremonies this week.
