Why did Barack Hussein Obama attend Jeremiah Wright’s depraved church of race hatred for so long? Robin of Berkeley has a possible psychological explanation — to purge himself of whiteness:
For his adult mentor, Obama picked Rev. Jeremiah Wright. Then Pastor of the Trinity United Church of Christ, Wright is a fan of Black Liberation Theology. BLT teaches that blacks are God’s Chosen People, with whites inferior and wicked. Its founder, James Cone, has described the goals of BLT this way:
“…complete emancipation of black people from white oppression by whatever means black people deem necessary… Theologically, Malcolm X was not far wrong when he called the white man ‘the devil.'”
By choosing this church over all others, Obama made a pivotal life decision. For seventeen years, Obama sat in the pews of Trinity consuming the vitriol of racial hate. In one sermon after another, Rev. Jeremiah Wright invoked the specters of slavery and Jim Crow, resurrecting a war that, for him, had never ended.
In his autobiography, Obama lets slip a fascination with something that the biracial Malcolm X once said. Malcolm was so repulsed by his white ancestry that he daydreamed about draining the white blood from his body.
One must wonder: by Obama’s choosing Trinity, a church where his own mother wouldn’t have been welcome, was he trying to exorcise the evil white spirit in him? And by joining that church, did he finally leave his repugnant white side behind at Trinity’s door?
Having purged himself, he can now avenge the misdeeds — real and imaginary — of people who died long ago.
