Well…. that all depends on what Anti-Establishment means to you? To me, it means someone who opposes the standards and perceptions set by societies collective conscience. In layman’s terms, someone who is adverse to ‘The Man’. However, I’m going to try my best to make sure this post doesn’t sound like something from 1970’s Blaxploitation film.

Barack Obama IS Anti-Establishment. His continuing success and spotlight has effectively shattered the established perceptions of the ‘Black Man.’ As a result of this, many people within our society have been left wondering what ever happened to stereotype that they had become so accustomed to. They want to know what happened to the platinum tooth wearing, slam-dunking, big rimming, wide receiving, corn-rowing, womanizing, over gesticulating, booty-slapping, hip hopping, weed smoking, plea bargaining, ebonic talking, joke making, underachieving, minimum wage earning, loud dressing son-of-a-husband-less bitch they have grown to hate and at the same time, love.
Fret not my bigot minded friends, he still exists, and feel free to use him as a vital tool in your attempts to overcome your inferiority complex. However, be fore-warned. There are always two sides to a coin, and for too long the majority of society has only seen one side thanks to our media. A media so powerful that a intelligent black man can often be reduced to…. his widely accepted stereotype. Nonetheless, enough about me. lol The time has come for us to see the other side of the coin. The side where the Barack Obama’s of the world exist. Finally, the coin has been tossed….and guess what, its landed on ‘Heads’. Head of the pack, by using his head to become the Head of State….hopefully.
Nevertheless, whether Barack Obama wins or loses his bid for President. He will still receive a standing ovation from yours truly. A guy who yearns to be just as Anti-Establishment as he is.
