Yeah, but according to the African-Americans that I've spoken to about this he wasn't a "proper" black person. The main reasons cited were that he wears expensive suits, sits up very straight for photos and is successful.
(To be fair I have never been to America so I've only spoken to a handful of African-Americans about this, and they were drunk and on holiday so perhaps weren't thinking clearly)
What hope do I have as a black person in this world
