After being contacted by a frantic aide while he was getting a haircut, President Obama gave the white staffer a lesson in black culture. “The relationship between a black man and his barber is sacred,” Obama said. “For failing to understand this truth, your punishment is to watch the movie Barbershop. And for further punishment, you will then watch the sequel, Barbershop 2.”
Imagine a modern day White CiC said something of this nonsensical and racially dividing context to a Black staffer.
It’d be the talk of the town for weeks..
The video held by the LAT – if such a brazen act were to be acted upon for a Conservative or Republican.. there’d be pitchforks demanding to see said tape.
The passes this fraud of a ‘leader’ gets speaks volumes of us, our elected officials and sadly our nation as a whole.
