Harvard Law professor Charles J. Ogletree Jr., Equal Justice Society board chair emeritus, is quoted in a Washington Post article, “President-Elect Sees His Race as An Opportunity,” written by Michael A. Fletcher and slated to appear on the front page of Monday’s paper:

Charles J. Ogletree Jr., a Harvard University professor who mentored Obama in law school, said his protege “has always confidently declared himself an African American. He is the last to say we are in a post-racial period. He has reminded people that we still have to think about race and address race issues.”
