OK. Eight years. He's over. He was touted to be the great Messiah who would heal the division and bring the people together. He was the great Black Hope. He was to look out for the Black people and create a more equitable society for them to compete.
I now ask, just what exactly did Obama do for Black folks?
Over the past eight years, President Barack Obama has worked to improve the lives of all Americans, including African Americans, by providing economic and educational opportunities, improving healthcare coverage, working to ensure that the criminal justice system is applied fairly to all citizens, and championing workforce development to ensure we continue to develop and retain the strongest, most productive workforce in the world. During this Administration, African Americans have made strides in many of these areas.
