Blaming Obama for the current state of race relations is like blaming Apple or Samsung for making phones with high quality cameras that capture all the footage.
Obama's presidency happens to coincide with a technological boom in America.
There were no HD camera phones prior to 2008 and no 4G mobile networks.
Race relations are actually probably the best they have been in my life time. Things have been relatively equal for black people for a generation now.
Some blacks have escaped generational poverty and some haven't. 400 years of inequality can't be completely fixed in 1 generation.
Most Americans get up and go to work everyday and don't give race a thought. People only seemed to be consumed with race on the internet (especially the OT).
