United States - Obama lauds 鈥楤utler鈥
Print Edition
President Barack Obama teared up watching Lee Daniels’ “The Butler,” a film about the US civil rights battle as seen by an African-American who served in the White House.
The movie, starring Forest Whitaker and Oprah Winfrey, topped the North American box office for a second straight weekend and is considered a multiple Academy Award contender.
“I teared up just thinking about not just the butlers who worked here in the White House, but an entire generation of people who were talented and skilled, but because of Jim Crow, because of discrimination, there was only so far they could go,” Obama told radio host Tom Joyner.
