How does Obama's mother keep him in touch with his African American heritage while living in Indonesia?
Obama's mother tried to help Obama keep his heritage through education. She had arranged for Barack to go to the International school, for U.S. Correspondence courses. She would bring Barack school books on the civil rights movement, and speeches of Dr.King. She instilled the belief that being black was to be the benificiary of a great inheritance, a good destiny, and glorious burdens that they only were strong enough to bear. She also warned him of bigots, and told him to keep his heritage, no matter what people said. She taught him to build his defenses up, and to be humble.
