‘The Black Presidency: Barack Obama and the Politics of Race in America,’ by Michael Eric Dyson - The New York Times

‘The Black Presidency: Barack Obama and the Politics of Race in America,’ by Michael Eric Dyson - The New York Times:



"What happens when the nation’s foremost voice on the race question is also its most confined and restrained? Michael Eric Dyson raises this question about President Obama in his latest book, “The Black Presidency: Barack Obama and the Politics of Race in America.” The book inspires one to raise similar questions about Dyson himself. For, while hardly restrained, Dyson appears noticeably boxed in by the limitations placed on celebrity race commentators in the Age of Obama."
