Racism doesn't stop Color of Change from selling T-shirts emblazoned with the words "Kanye was Right" [http://www.zazzle.com/kanye_was_right_tshirt-235287472366274585], referring to the hostile remarks made by rapper Kanye West during a fundraising for victims of [[Hurricane Katrina]] in September, 2005, in which he declared that the federal response to the disaster was deliberately slow because the victims were black. "We already realize a lot of people that could help are at war right now, fighting another way -- and they've given them permission to go down and shoot us!" He added a moment later "George Bush doesn’t care about black people."

====The Obamas and obesity====
The Obamas have come out against obesity, making it a goal to have obesity ratings for all citizens done by 2014<ref>http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2010/07/17/feds-monitor-obesity-white-house-promotes-obama-cook-senior-position/</ref>. This includes mandatory checks on body fat index, to be made available in medical health records. "We all know the numbers," Michelle Obama said. "I mean, one in three kids are overweight or obese, and we're spending $150 billion a year treating obesity-related illnesses. So we know this is a problem, and there's a lot at stake"<ref>http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/Health/michelle-obama-childhood-obesity-initiative/story?id=9781473</ref>. Her efforts include teaching kids at the school level about proper nutrition and diet<ref>http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/bs-md-michelle-obama-20100716,0,5929371.story</ref>; and she has made claims that it costs over $140 billion a year in heath care, in addition to national security issues<ref>http://www.cnsnews.com/news/article/61157</ref>.
But that didn't stop the Obamas from going to a Mount Desert<ref>http://www.mdiic.com/</ref> ice cream parlor in North Carolina<ref>http://www.onlinesentinel.com/news/white-house-wanderers-tour-acadia_2010-07-16.html</ref>, where a typical vanilla is very high in saturated fat and calories<ref>http://caloriecount.about.com/calories-ice-creams-vanilla-i19095</ref>, alongside any other premium ice cream<ref>http://www.newsweek.com/2008/05/21/six-of-the-most-fattening-ice-cream-flavors.html</ref>.
