The Dope on Obama’s Communist Prof, Derrick Bell (fm. last night’s Twitter activists)

I was not able to see the initial broadcast of Sean Hannity’s Fox News program last night. Instead, I scanned Twitter, to see what was being related about the highly (but not widely) promoted video of Obama at Harvard, talking up his Harvard faculty friend (and anti-American Communist) Derrick Bell.

This is what I found:

From @JustenCharters:

A Video: You Must Watch. Derrick Bell And Bill Ayers Were B.F.F. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YbQjAyabUbo #GOP #TCOT #LNYBT #Hannity #Breitbart #WAR

From @ColorMeRed:

This leads to the introductory Breitbart, Big Government article.

From @jc_rss_rul:

Apparently indicates an attempted scrubbing of Wikipedia, of this paragraph (this excerpt includes wikimedia script, I’ve converted its URL to a link of the same):

Bell reentered the debate over hiring practices at Harvard in 1990, when he vowed to take an unpaid leave of absence until the school appointed a female of color to its tenured faculty.<ref>{{cite news|title=Derrick Bell takes a leave of absence to protest the lack of minority faculty at Harvard Law |url=http://openvault.wgbh.org/catalog/tocn-mla000738-derrick-bell-teaches-a-civil-rights-course|accessdate=30 November 2011| newspaper=The Ten O’Clock News|date=12/03/1990}}</ref> At the time, of the law school’s 60 tenured professors, only three were black and five were women.

From @CarolCNY:

You can gain some insight into Bell connection to Obama, Obama didn’t move away from Wright, he hasn’t changed at all. http://blog.revdrpaulsmith.org/2008/03/23/from-derrick-bell-barack-obama-and-the-rev-jeremiah-wright-issue.aspx
