YouTube Description
as posted by the channelIn the new book, A Black Man in the White House: Barack Obama and the Triggering of America's Racial-Aversion Crisis, author Cornell Belcher presents his stunning new research that highlights how deep America's racial fault lines continue to be.
Belcher declares that the rise of Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump "was a predictable backlash from America electing its first Black president. The panicked response of the waning white majority to what they perceive as the catastrophe of a Black president can be heard in every cry to take back our country. This panic has resulted in the elevation of an overt and unapologetic racist as the nominee of one of America's major political parties."
Belcher joined Roland Martin on Thursday's edition of NewsOne Now to discuss his new book and his stunning new research.
