Race relations worsen under Obama

Washington Times:

A poll finds that more than one-third of Americans say they worry “a great deal” about the state of race relations in the United States, the highest number in the poll’s 15-year span.

Thirty-five percent of Americans in the Gallup survey released Monday said they are extremely worried about the state of race relations, up from 28 percent in 2015. That number is also up by more than 100 percent since 2014, when 17 percent of Americans said they were greatly worried about racial strife in America.

The numbers fluctuated in the teens during President Obama’s first six years in office, but race relations tumbled to a new low during the first black president’s last two years.

Heightened concerns over race relations coincide with the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement, which was sparked after a series of high-profile incidents in which black men were shot by white police officers.

Black Lives Matter has made things worse.  It comes across as a militant racist organization That the left is clearly kowtowing to.  Any organization that rejects the contention that all lives matter is inherently racist or at a minimum incoherent.  They also seem to be an anti police organization that cares little for the black on black murder rate.
