James Cone interview

Thanks for posting this! Liberation theology has moved from being a center of interest to a guiding force in my life over the last ten years - but in my case from the standpoint of African Traditional Religions (or Neo-African ones, namely Vodou). I remember trying to read Cone a few years ago but it was a bit dense for my layman's intellect; but this this video is straight and to the point.

Hey yeah, this a party, it's great, let's excuse black racists because they belong to churches and because slavery was in America over 100 years ago, WEEE! Go Obama!

How weird a year was it? Here's how weird:

  • O.J. actually got convicted of something.
  • Gasoline hit $4 a gallon -- and those were the good times.
  • On several occasions, "Saturday Night Live" was funny.
  • There were a few days there in October when you could not completely rule out the possibility that the next Treasury secretary would be Joe the Plumber.
  • Finally, and most weirdly, for the first time in history, the voters elected a president who -- despite the skeptics who said such a thing would never happen in the United States-- was neither a Bush nor a Clinton.
