Sean Hannity and Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson
On a powerful and politically incorrect segment on Sean Hannity’s top-rated radio show, Rev. Jesse Lee Peterson – author of the just-released book “The Antidote: Healing America From the Poison of Hate, Blame, and Victimhood” – explained to Hannity’s vast audience how fatherlessness and a toxic culture of victimhood, common to far too many black Americans, profoundly shaped Barack Obama and shaped him into the lying, deceitful politician he is today.
Peterson, for 25 years the president and founder of a Los Angeles-based nonprofit, the Brotherhood Organization of a New Destiny, or BOND, is also a radio talk host, a popular WND columnist, and has appeared many times on Fox News and other TV networks.
This particular Hannity segment focused on Obama’s insistence that tens of thousands of Muslim “refugees” – most of them military-age men – from Syria be brought to the U.S. despite widespread public opposition.
Commented Peterson, “Barack Obama wants to create as much chaos as possible.”
But should America take in Syrian refugees on “humanitarian grounds”?
“America is the No. 1 country in the world for helping and giving,” answered Peterson. “We don’t mind helping; we’re always giving. But there’s a point you have to say ‘No! Stop!’ And this is the time.
“Because these people, if they’re allowed to come in here, they’re going to kill us. Not all of them, but some of them are terrorists – they’re going to kill us.
“And the same thing with Barack Obama, Sean, the only reason Obama has been able to get away with doing all the things he’s done to us is that no one has said ‘no’ to him. The Republicans have been afraid to say it for fear of being called racists.” It’s the same reason, he surmises, that too few white people are standing up to the Black Lives Matter protesters.
But the situation is getting dire, says Peterson, who hopes Americans will find the courage to stand up to both the president and the racially charged protesters.
“I’m an American,” Peterson said. “Whatever happens to my country happens to me, and I know without a doubt that if we don’t say no to the president, if we don’t say no to Black Lives Matter and all these other radical groups that are running around destroying everything, it’s going to only get worse.”
When the other guest on the segment, Rev. Charles Christian Adams of Detroit’s Hartford Memorial Baptist Church, objected to Peterson’s comments about Obama’s youth and upbringing, Hannity responded: “He’s talking about what motivates, what is the fundamental, foundational aspects to Obama that has led us to the point that he’s given the Iranians nuclear weapons and $150 billion … and the fact that his socialistic policies have left 94.5 million Americans out of the labor force and 50 million in poverty … and millions more on food stamps.”
Listen to the Hannity segment with Jesse Lee Peterson here:
“The Antidote,” says Peterson early on in the book, is “the book I’ve always wanted to write – a book that tells the truth, that provides the roadmap to rebuilding families, that lets the reader know there really is an antidote so they no longer need to hate, blame, or play the victim.”
Respected nationally syndicated radio host Dennis Prager, calling Peterson “one of the wisest people I have ever met,” sizes up Jesse this way in his “Foreword” he wrote to “The Antidote”:
In the thirty-three years I have been broadcasting, I have interviewed probably a thousand authors. I have interviewed virtually every major thinker who speaks English. Yet, a full hour that I interviewed Jesse Peterson stands out as one of the most significant hours I ever broadcast. It was mesmerizing radio.
However, as good, kind, and wise as he is, he possesses one other trait that makes him particularly rare.
There are many admirable traits that a good person may possess – honesty, integrity, compassion, among others – but there is one trait that very few good people have. That trait is courage.
One of the great tragedies of the human condition is that all the goodness that people have in their hearts and express outwardly adds up to very little without courage. There were undoubtedly many good Germans. The reason the Nazis prevailed was that few had courage.
The same holds true whenever evil takes over a society. It is rarely an absence of decent people that enables the triumph of evil. It is that few of those decent people have courage.
And here is where Jesse Lee Peterson stands out.
Jesse is fearless. Or to be more accurate, he does not allow fear to govern his behavior or speech. I have no idea whether or not he has fears. I only know that fear plays no role in his work. He answers to God and his conscience.
To be honest, I have a fear – that what I have written here will sound too good to be true. Can anyone be this extraordinary? The truth is that he is better than what I have written.
And now, thanks to this book, far more people will get to know this man – his autobiography is riveting – as are his brilliant, frank, and courageous insights into perhaps the most intractable problem in American life: the black underclass.
There are a number of excellent books about black America. But if you read only one book about what ails large segments of contemporary black America – and the only way to cure that ailment – this should be the one.
There is wisdom on every page. Jesse is unflinchingly honest, willing to openly confront painful realities despite a political and cultural environment that wishes to pretend otherwise, and either ignores or severely punishes those as candid as he is.
