Barack Obama is worried for the safety of his two daughters who are very involved in the Black Lives Matter movement.
Although the former President of the United States believes that Malia, 22, and Sasha, 19, are much wiser than they were at their age, he still fears for their physical integrity when they participate in demonstrations.
“I am still worried about their physical safety;
it's just natural for a father… But when it comes to their ability to determine what is good and bad, and the role they are going to play in making the country a better place, I don't care, ”explained politician in an interview with CNN.
Less noise and more acts
For Barack Obama, his daughter's generation is simply less tolerant of injustice than his and more able to fight for concrete change.
“Faced with what you and I have tolerated by saying to ourselves, 'Things are the way they are,' their attitude is to say, 'Why?
Let's change that ”.
This is not only seen with my daughters, but also with their friends.
(…) They don't just want to make noise, they want it to work, ”continued the former tenant of the White House.
