Who is Behind Color of Change?

Color of Change.org
Color of change.org is strengthening Black America's political voice

They are on the attack against Fox's Glenn Beck as their featured campaign is Stop Glenn Beck's race baiting. Fox's Glenn Beck recently said President Obama is "a racist" and has a "deep-seated hatred for white people." Beck is on a campaign to convince the American public that President Obama's agenda is about serving the needs of Black communities at White people's expense. It's repulsive, divisive and shouldn't be on the air.

One small little question -- How could have Obama sat in a black church with Rev Wright who preached "Hate Whitey" and not feel the same way? Did he try to change Rev Wright. No -- he just threw him under the bus when the heat in the kitchen got too hot during the campaign and all of a sudden he was never there when Rev Wright let lose on whites. If you believe that, I have swapland for sale in Arizona.

Below you will find the people who are behind the attacks on Glenn Beck:
