BELL: 'I LIVES TO HARASS WHITE FOLKS'Video reveals motto of professor lauded by ObamaPublished: 14 hours agoA video that has been posted on Breitbart TV reveals the professor about whom a young Barack Obama said, “Open your hearts and open your minds to the words of Prof. Derrick Bell,†claimed as his own motto, “I lives to harass white folks.â€The issue of Bell and his relationship with Obama arose recently when videos appeared that showed a Harvard-era Obama talking to a crowd, telling congregants to pay attention to the radical teacher.Significantly, the video revealed Obama’s far-left leanings during his college years, and the video shows then-student Obama speaking warmly of behalf of the leftist Bell and then hugging him.“This is just the beginning. And this video is a smoking gun showing that Barack Obama not only associated with radicals, he was their advocate,†said editor Ben Shapiro of the website begun by the late conservative activist Andrew Breitbart.Referring to Professor Bell, Shapiro explained, “This is a close associate of [controversial Obama Rev.] Jeremiah Wright, a man who was quoted by Jeremiah Wright regularly. This is a man who posited that the civil rights movement was too moderate because it accepted the status quo, and believed that the entire legal and constitutional system had to be transformed in radical fashion. This is a man so extreme that, as we’ve reported, he wrote a story in 1993 in which he posited that white Americans would sell black Americans into slavery to aliens to relieve the national debt, and that Jews would go along with it.â€The new video shows Bell being interviewed. He is asked, “What keeps you going?â€The affluent university leader then said, “You try to figure what is your life about…â€He then recalled walking up a “dusty road†with a woman in Mississippi years before.“I said … they’re trying to foreclose your mortgage in town. They fired your son from his job. They even shot at your husband last week I understand. Why do you do it?â€He said she responded, “I’m an old lady, and I lives to harass white folks.â€Bell said, “She knew that those oppressing her were white. She didn’t have their power. She didn’t have their money. She certainly didn’t have their guts. But she saw her life as giving trouble, being on the case all the time,†Bell said.“And I’ve accepted as my motto; ‘I lives to harass white folks,’†Bell said.It appears that Bell also visited the White House two years ago after Obama moved in.The name “Derrick A. Bell†shows up twice in the White House visitors’ logs for Jan. 29 and Jan. 31, 2010. Bell died in October 2011.Obama’s schedule shows the president was inside the White House at least during Bell’s visit to the White House residence on Jan. 29 beginning at 9 a.m.Bell scheduled his Jan. 31 White House appointment on Jan. 27 – the day of Obama’s 2010 State of the Union address.The event of the video in which Obama stars was Bell’s protest demanding Harvard hire a black woman – specifically the visiting professor Regina Austin, who, like Bell, was an adherent of Critical Race Theory.Bell is largely credited as the originator of the theory, which analyzes the way “white supremacy†and “racial power†are reproduced over time and seeks “racial emancipation†and “anti-subordination†from whites.
