Roland Martin Slams Ezra Klein and Ben Shapiro for Distorting History on Obama and White Backlash
Understand the historical pattern: White backlash always follows Black progress, a truth obscured by current media narratives that Roland Martin deconstructs by analyzing interviews with Ezra Klein and Ben Shapiro.
Short Summary
- Confront the media fantasy that characterized Obama’s presidency as a "post-racial" moment.
- Recognize the predictable historical pattern where conservative opposition immediately follows significant Black achievement.
- Identify how mainstream and right-wing commentators fail to challenge misleading narratives about Presidential statements on race.
This segment analyzes specific media interactions surrounding Barack Obama’s presidency to reveal underlying racial dynamics. Roland Martin employs historical precedent—noting that white resentment consistently surfaces after Black advancement—to contextualize the failures of figures like Ben Shapiro and Ezra Klein to maintain intellectual honesty during discussions on race. This offers crucial insight into the roots of contemporary political polarization.

Why are White people so afraid of becoming a minority? Are minorities treated poorly in America? 🍻💀🍻
Republicans stay mad about 2008 A Black Man from Chicago became President.
I don't know how anyone on God's green earth, listen to Ben Shapiro's annoying voice!
This is the problem with mainstream media. They always platform people who do not need to be platformed.
Why dissect Obama's every word instead of dissecting the words of their own people who have actually caused direct harm.
If it weren't for Roland, we wouldn't know the truth about anything or anybody. Thank you, Roland. You have been blessed with absolute recall of many many years.
Ben Shapiro ignored the fact that Barack Obama didn't grow up upper-middle class. When Obama was at Harvard he did get stopped by campus police, and he was carded as if he wasn't supposed to be on campus. Ugh.... These racists piss me off with their upside down logic.
As a White Man If You Dont Understand Racism Listen To Ben Shapiro Hes a Racist
Again a wonderful and infomiñtive program! Obama was one of the most intelligent, informed and kind President we ever had. He still is a bright light today. This is coming from a 79 yr old white grandma.
Roland!!! Keep it going. It is important that you clear it up!! Great job!!!!👏🏽
