When White will embrace what is Right

Rev. Joseph Lowery led the Inauguration Benediction of President Obama. A Benediction is a type of religious blessing, sometimes ceremonial as in the Benediction of the Blessed Sacrament. However, in this "blessing" of Rev. Lowery, he stated:

"Lord, in the memory of all the saints who from their labors rest, and in the joy of a new beginning, we ask you to help us work for that day when black will not be asked to get in back, when brown can stick around, when yellow will be mellow, when the red man can get ahead, man; and when white will embrace what is right. Let all those who do justice and love mercy say Amen. Say Amen. And Amen"

This is the same type of racist crackery that Obama's former Rev. Jeremiah Wright spewed from his pew for the 20 years Obama sat in his pulpit, only that Rev. Jeremiah Wright happened not to spew that racist rhetoric on days Obama attended church. However, on this day, Obama was there to listen to this crap. When has a black person been asked to get to the back of the bus? Where is the institutionalized racism that once occured and was practiced by whites exist? What does "yellow will be mellow" and "red man can get ahead" mean while we're at it? In a country that's nearly 75% white, how the hell does a black man get elected President if we're a bunch of racists?! Obama should reject this bullshit and put his sloganeering "Hope and Change" to use. This whole speech is predicated on the notion that there is truth to what he's stating.
