President Barack Obama Says He Broke Kid’s Nose Who Called Him A Racial Slur
“Ain’t No Coons In Hawaii” – Barack Hussein Obama
The former President was speaking with Bruce Springsteen on their new Spotify podcast, “Renegades: Born in the USA,” and amid a wide-ranging conversation about their lives, politics, music and race … Obama recalled the incident with a classmate.
He says the kid was a friend he played basketball with, and one time they got into a fight and his friend called him a racial slur … different from the n-word. He called him a coon!
Obama says he doesn’t even think his schoolmate knew what the word meant — just that it was meant to be hurtful — so he “popped him in the face and broke his nose” while they were in the locker room.
Obama says his friend asked him why he did that, and he told him … “Don’t ever call me something like that.”
Their podcast series is a 6-parter … with the third episode coming soon.
