dc.description.abstractThis paper does not explore reversed racism for several reasons. First of all, it was triggered by Obama’s political triumph which marked an important break with traditional political power relations. Secondly, it presents and was inspired by two major historical and political personalities, both of whom stand for racial unity and acceptance. Barack Obama has embraced his mixed heritage and has claimed to be the president of all Americans. Martin Luther King, Jr. did not only fight for his own African-American community, but had a deep faith in racial harmony and peace, and warned his more radical contemporaries against the dangers of reversed racism and a possible “distrust of all white people.”7 This paper intends to explore in depth the complexities of these two figures as well as to commemorate Barack Obama’s historic victory.hu_HU
