Many Americans expected to see a great social revolution after the 2008 election of Barack Obama, the first African American elected to the Presidency of the United States of America.  Despite hard opposition by Republicans, he was re-elected in 2012. But the hopes of a social revolution in which racism would be a thing of the past seems not to have materialized. Items like Reparations for Slavery were never even put on the table for discussion.  The Affordable Health Care Act - did it give us access to better health care or just make the insurance companies wealthier? What's the real story behind these senseless shootings by police - and why have they suddenly become so bold? Has racial hatred increased or did having an African Americn President merely bring it to the surface? Michael Eric Dyson questions whether President Obama has done enough in his book "The Black Presidency: Barack Obama and the Policy of Race in America." Where is the urban economic policy that could have stemmed the tide of drugs in the inner city? In her book, Dr. Julianne Malvaux asks the question, "Are We Better Off?" After eight years of President Barack Obama, todays host Evangel Mama Dee Love asks the question, "Are Blacks Better Off?"
