The church that Barack Obama has attended since 1991 is the Trinity United Church of Christ in Chicago. Their website at www.tucc.org states in the "About Us" section:
"We are a congregation which is Unashamedly Black and Unapologetically Christian... Our roots in the Black religious experience and tradition are deep, lasting and permanent. We are an African people, and remain "true to our native land," the mother continent, the cradle of civilization. God has superintended our pilgrimage through the days of slavery, the days of segregation, and the long night of racism. It is God who gives us the strength and courage to continuously address injustice as a people, and as a congregation. We constantly affirm our trust in God through cultural expression of a Black worship service and ministries which address the Black Community."
Another article of reference is the following:

Is Barack Obama: A. Black Separatist; B. Black Nationalist; and/or C. Africentric? Any, all or none of these?
I think the mistake you are making is assuming that Obama is really religious and not just donning the moniker of Christian because you have to be to get elected in our supposedly free country. I have the impression that Obama is not overly religious. Which is one of the reasons I feel better about voting for him.
Reply:I think he is just a relatively normal person, and considering his determination to hold office, that is saying something.
Reply:*facepalm* Worldnetdaily... no wonder.
It's all full of complete and utter fail.
Reply:Obama is the reason why Jen and Brad Pitt broke up.
Reply:So you think he should be ashamed to be black or should he just be ashamed to be a Christian.
I don't get your point...
