Delayed Response: Obama's Speech

Well, two days after the fact I still haven't said anything about Barack Obama's landmark speech on race in America. I thought it was brilliant and I can only hope that it will put the Jeremiah Wright controversy to rest. Obama managed to balance the speech very well. I was particularly impressed by how he explained that African-Americans' anger was justified. He also mentioned that the anger of some white Americans was justified. I'm not going into nearly enough detail on this, but I really don't have the time right now. So you should watch the speech and draw your own conclusions.
