Read the following passage carefully. Then answer the questions or complete statements in the fewest possible words.On his way to the White House, Barack Obama received huge support from black voters------ more than 95 percent of whom voted for him. But despite that suppot, some blacks worry that Obama”s historic achievements might not be all good news for the civil rights struggle.They fear that growing numbers of white voters and policy makers will decide that ending racial discrimination and creating equal opportunity have largely been done. And it might become harder to find support for policies that were intended to fight discrimination, injustices, and urban poverty. “I worry that there is a numbers of population that might be harder to motivate, average citizens who will say : Come on. We have a black president, so we must be over it”,says Roderick J. Harrison, a sociologist at Howard University in Washington, D.C.“That is the danger, that we declare victory,” says Harrison, “Historic as this moment is, it does not represent a major victory in the continuing, daily battle.”Such concerns have been building for moths, on black talk- radio shows and blogs, in dinner conversations, academic meetings, and e-mail messages across the country.Others dismiss the idea that Obama’s success might weaken support for race-based policies. They praise Obama’s emphasis on solution to economic problems like troubled schools, unemployment, and inadequate health insurance. Addressing these problems, which affect all Americans, would certainly help blacks.
