After
a bitter struggle with cancer of the uterus, mother died Barack Obama
on the seventh of November 1995, a few weeks before his third birthday
session. Was then the largest less than two years from the age of the U.S. president today. David
Maranis of The Washington Post talked about this mother and
relationship with her children and their impact on the American
president's life.
Four months before the death of the mother of Barack Obama, he published a book Dreams From My Father (Dreams from My Father). It seemed as if this book will sink like others in the vicinity of deep books. But a year later, Obama won in its first elections, occupied a seat in the Illinois Senate. This was the first stop in his rapid journey towards the White House. As a result, people rush to buy those memos forgotten. Flaqy this book are in great demand, specifying thus Obama's political image. Well, give him a safer financially lasts a lifetime.
The
title of the book justified and misleading in that, Obama did not know
his father only through dreams or nightmares, because he did not take
time with him only once. Long visit to his father this month and it was terrible. But
the bitter truth shows that Barack Obama Jr. was probably lucky he did
not live with Barack Obama Sr., who suffered addiction elderly, the most
notable impact on Obama during the early stages of his life, his mother
and grandmother. Obama possess the manners of his grandmother excellence and determination mother, and beauty. Therefore, cross the title dreams of my mother are sincere about his life.
The researcher's mother
Obama's mother carried many names. When
given the birth name of Stanley Ann Dunham, Vafterdt, like many, that
her father is insisted on giving them a first name, it is also named
Stanley Dunham. But one of her relatives suggests otherwise, and says that this name chosen by Dunham Madlaan, Stanley Ann's mother. The
تاقت Madlaan, girl grew up in a small town in Kansas, to tradition
Betty Davis, those represented high-end, which saw their work on the big
screen in the the Augusta air-conditioned lounge. When Madlaan was pregnant, Davis participated in the film resulted in the character of a woman named Stanley. But as it turned out, was the daughter of Madlaan far cry from the blunt character of that movie, cunning, and racism. Turning the name of Stanley Ann in school to ستاني, to become Stanley in high school and later in life. Well, a lot of fame changed Dunham to Obama Fssoatoro and finally Sotoro.
Regardless of the name, demonstrated Obama's mother love search and reconnaissance. She married Kenny and Indonesians (collapsed Zoajaha the the both of them, I quickly and II slowly). She spent most of her life after the age of adolescence in foreign countries, and used nomadic permanent. I
got a Ph.D. in anthropology, and demonstrated the character is an
expert in this area like observation and participation, and these
qualities Chatrtha with her son. استهوتها other cultures and lifestyles.
Dunham
also enjoyed high language skills, was speaking fluent Indonesian, as
well as acquired considerable knowledge available Alerdoah, Indian and
Javanese, French and Latin. What foreign film did not want to watch it or not traditional dress Taatmn wear or myth did not try to understand. She
spent the major period of her life after a teenager in Indonesia, where
poured the whole interest in the work of the rural blacksmiths, because
they were considered they يصقلون the human spirit. Later,
devoted most of her time to help women in Java in maintaining their
craft, of which Iktaatn are, in a patriarchal society practiced invited
«repressive silent» for women. Vaatadt
waking up before dawn every morning and was recorded in a book, its
cover decorated with black and white points, her travels and you meet
and hopes of the oceans, including her son.
A complex relationship
Barack Obama's relationship with his mother complex. They call him Barry or bar (the word close to utter the word bear in English). Encouraged him to work hard and to empathize with others. For as long as they are protected by hair, according to his memoirs. Obama
describes the scene when she told him that she intends to marry Blolo
Soetoro and they all will move to live in Indonesia after marriage. Remember that he turned to them and asked her: 'But do you love him? », A question to make her chin trembling. Unlike this question over Obama's intelligence. Was then in the third and a half years old. Asked this is in line with a formula that was based upon its relationship with his mother for years. It was naive, ideal and a good heart to the extent that they were sometimes do harm to themselves. In
the diary that دونتها friendly Barack Obama in New York, Genevieve
Cook, through its relationship with Obama in the early eighties, Cook
wrote: «He told me last night that beyond his mother with him during the
past two years in an attempt to stop supporting the performance of the
role of men in her life. Therefore, it feels outcast, making it involve itself ».
Stated that once joked they had kids of a Kenyan man and another Indonesian so as not to be very light skin, فتحرقها sun. Ann
looked traditional teacher from Kansas, said, what it easy to cross the
checkpoints at airports and harbors during the many trips to foreign
countries. But this does not apply to Barry, the son of Kenyan man, and his sister, Maya, the daughter of Indonesia. Mother and ولداها struggled to find their identity, but each of them in their own way. Ann has found itself through its work and her travels. But this lifestyle forced her to stay away from her son throughout the greater part of his adolescence. Obama has spent the time with his grandparents in Honolulu, while she was staying in Indonesia. On
the other hand, has taken the search for identity in the case of
psychological character and has, is Maya believes that her mother
understood, but she did not recognize him. It is true that Ann was perfect in her career, but not stupid. Although
her sons sometimes seemed naive, was trying to do the performance of
the role of a mother who does not want to suffer her children.
Maya told me during one of her interviews: «keen to be laughter and the
main way we communicate, that our life devoid of bitterness, and where
everything is beautiful and sacred. Maybe you do not want to suffer in our search for our identity. Wished to consider our identity grace or gift.
As Thdrna of cultures and civilizations and multiple veins, were not
ready probably because نتخبط in our quest to discover our identity. Not been able to give us a real help in this area. Maybe she thought she recognized this problem will feel guilt.
But talking about guilt is useless today.
His father, Barack Obama, regardless of its name, never lived to see
the brightness of the star of her son, who drafted in her life every
detail of his presidency.
