Description of Dreams from My Father by Barack Obama ePub

“Dreams from My Father: A Story of Race and Inheritance” gives us an insight into one of America’s most brilliant and eloquent minds. Barack Obama is the author of this impressive book. President Obama’s “Dreams from My Father” is written beautifully. This book is honest, and it moves with fluid and coherent writing. It gives an interesting perspective of the author’s sense of incomplete identity after being abandoned by his father when he was just a young boy. As the book passes through the different stages of the author’s life, you see an ambitious [white] mother who encourages him to succeed in school, opens his eyes to a culture that is different from his own and teaches, by her actions, equality for people of all races. You see loving and caring [white] grandparents who reinforce the values of racial equality and provide a home for him when his mother, who remains in Indonesia, sends him back to the states for a better education.

All of these factors: the need to understand his relationship to his [African-born], Harvard educated father, his dark skin inherited from racially mixed parents, his experiences of witnessing injustice and discrimination toward people of African descent, the love and support of his grandparents, and his mother’s anthropological humanism seems to have influenced the choices he made for his friends, acquaintances, and work and service to mankind. A most enlightening part of the biography is when the author treats the reader with his fascinating personal reflections of his journey to Kenya to meet his brothers and sisters from his father’s multiple marriages, cousins, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and other people who knew his father. The quest for identity comes full circle with a clearer family heritage for the author, and the circumference is propitiously grand. We would definitely recommend this book as well as the Audacity of Hope to anyone interested in knowing our new President from the inside, his plans, his thoughts, for himself and our country.
