Hill, Johnny Bernard.

The first Black presidentBarack Obama, race, politics, and the American dream /[electronic resource] :Johnny Bernard Hill. - 1st ed. - New York :Palgrave Macmillan,2009. - 198 p. ;22 cm.

Includes bibliographical references and index.

We Shall Overcome: Obama and the Civil Rights Movement -- Obama and Race in America -- A Black Man in White America --Obama, African Diaspora and the New Meaning of Blackness -- Race, Power andTechnology in the New Millennium -- Obamanomics and Black America -- Why Obama will Change the World -- An Obama Administration and the Black Agenda.

The First Black President is a critical and passionate reflection onthe political and historical implications of an Obama administration concerning the issue of race in America. I intend to argue that Obama's rise to political power has forever changed the contours of race relations in the country as many hail the new age of a "post-racial" society.Yet, what I also show is that an Obama presidency could further complicate real racial progress and could set race relations back in the country for decades to come if not viewed in the proper context. I demonstrate that the Obama presidency must be celebrated as a historical triumph based on America's racist past, yet the struggle for equality, justice and freedom must also intensify with recognition of its global consequences. The problem of race in America no longer just affects its own citizens but impacts cultures around the globe.
