Analyze from an anthropological perspective the victory of Barack Obama as president of the U.S. in 2008. Does Obama’s victory indicate that the U.S. is no longer a racist country and that all ethnic groups in the society are treated equally? Is Obama, as some have said, a post-racial president? Do you think that the U.S. culture has changed as a result of Obama’s presidency? Did the relationship of the U.S. (and U.S. culture) and the rest of the world change as a result of Obama’s victory? If so, how? Consider current events from the news when developing your analysis.
