You know...I already didn't think his comments were all that wrong. Tactless, maybe, but not wrong.

Now, I'm not even sure they were tactless, put in context.

Thanks for the video.

I've sent messages to CNN, MSNBC, and Fox News (I know, but it doesn't hurt to try) notifying them of this video and urging them to report on the full context of Rev. Wright's sermon.

I encourage everyone else to do the same. It's extremely rare for contextual developments or corrections to ever become nearly as widespread as original stories, so it will take a great deal of work to expose people to the proper context.

As a side note...knowing now that the "chickens coming home to roost" was a direct reference to Malcolm X, and considering the standard white opinion of Malcolm X (which entirely ignores the direction he began to move near the end of his life, much like we ignore the direction Martin Luther King, Jr. was going as well), I am increasingly suspicious that this was no less than an intentional, and racist, hit job.
