At first it was viewed by African Americans that Obama had accomplished things for black people and he has, he became president, but that's where it ends. While in office he has actually worked against his people so I think black people have lost support for him now.

I think race in USA is viewed differently from what is depicted in that video since that is a child's point of view. The way it is, is as follows: Americans pretend to ignore race in society and any racism that occurs happens without any words being said like not giving them work, or avoiding their people. It's rare that people will go up to you just to be racist.

Profiling in airports is only natural and not racist, there are many Arabic where I live mostly upper class and no one really notices them, I think it's because they choose to integrate with society, they don't block roads or anything like the ones from Paris, they drive BMW's listening to Ke$ha wearing designer clothes.
