it looks different from under black skin. Maybe Michele Obama couldn't be proud before because of the US policy towards South Africa. Or because there had, and stil has, remained virulent but stifled racism among the Southern WHite mainstream. Maybe because there was the "WHite Flight" from the cities into the racially pure suburbs, which she took as a manifest rejection of racial intergration. Maybe because there were totally surreal grandiose military expenditures in the absense of a commeasurable threat at the whim of the military manufacturers, while people, especially blacks, were dying regularly because they were denied medical attention. Maybe. Maybe she found it hard to be proud of that.
