Obama’s speaking engagement even managed to stoke racial tensions on Thursday after revelations that the organizers of the former president’s speaking tour dumped an Indigenous elder from the event Wednesday evening, reportedly saying she was being “too difficult.”
Aunty Joy pointed the finger at event organizers and stressed, “I do not want this to be a reflection on President Obama.” While the lunch had taken place Thursday, it was unclear if Obama himself had reached out to Aunty Joy to apologize. The Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung Cultural Heritage Aboriginal Corporation did not respond to a request for comment when questioned by The Daily Beast.
On a winning streak, Obama also won back Aussie hearts during his talk on topics including the power of women and the tragedy of gun control.
