Cornel West is disturbed that U.S. President Barack Obama used Martin Luther King, Jr.’s bible during his inauguration. West remarked that Obama has a long way to go before he can be compared to MLK, Jr.

“The righteous indignation of a Martin Luther King, Jr. becomes a moment of political calculation. And that makes my blood boil,” said West. “Why? Because Martin Luther King, Jr died…he died…for the three crimes against humanity that he was wrestling with. Jim Crow, traumatizing, terrorizing, stigmatizing Black people. Lynching, not just ‘segregation’ as the press likes to talk about.”
