Black Love - Obama & Michelle
Regardless as to who you vote for this year - you've got to give Obama props for not only showing the world how strong and intelligent black men are,
but for images like these. A strong black couple - supporting each other to the fullest!
For too many years we have been considered somewhat of a caricature to those watching from the outside. We've appeared materialistic, overly
accessorized (bling), overly self medicated, overly sexed, violent and under-educated.
Thank you Obama and Michelle for putting your world on blast and letting folks know that there are many layers to black folks. They now see that we
all can't be grouped in the small box the world has placed us in.

Great pic, I'm not sure if this is Black love as he isn't Black.

Granted he's biracial - but I'm sure more folks consider him black than white. Whites consider him black. Black folks however seem to have more
issues with his black heritage.
Regardless, if it takes a biracial man, married to a black woman, to show a positive image of people of color to the world - I can accept that.

You know what I take it back. You posted a nice picture and everyone knows my views already. Good pic they indeed look great together.
Though I'm not sure what a person of color is.

JP!
All truth passes through three stages: 1) it is ridiculed, 2) it is violently opposed and 3) it is accepted as being self-evident.....
