The protesters who interrupted Obama's speech this morning carried a banner that said "What about the black community, Obama." At the bottom of their banner was the web address

www.uhurunews.com

What is Uhuru News? Well, the website seems to be down, but I can see that it descibes itself as the "Online Voice of the International African Revolution."

Update:The Washington Post describes the hecklers like this: "Activists from the International People's Democratic Uhuru Movement, a pan-African socialist group, who accused Obama of ignoring the plight of poor blacks targeted by predatory lenders, police brutality and racist attacks."
