George Hussein Onyango Obama, (born c. 1982) is the youngest son of Barack Obama, Sr., who died while George was only a few months old. He is the half brother of U.S. president Barack Obama. His mother is a Kenyan named Jael who now lives in Atlanta, Georgia.
Remember when “citizen of the world” Sen. Barack Obama’s “lost brother”, George Hussein Onyango Obama, was discovered living in a shanty in Kenya back in August by the Italian Vanity Fair? (Article reposted below.)
Well, now the UK’s Times Online has found two more Obama relatives, Kenyan immigrants, living a bit closer to home — in Boston.
Aunt Zeituni Onyango (aka ‘Auntie Zeituni’) and Uncle Omar have been living a short distance “from where the Democratic presidential candidate... Read Full Story
Before I became a victim of the Australian flu, I had been pretty busy with non-blog activities. Ever notice how Spring semester is ten times busier than Fall? Anyway, my institution always has an annual Faculty Symposium. We set aside a day for faculty to present some special interest subject--something they might be working on or we get together and do panel presentations.

This one is hard to write. There isn't much to go on, except a whole lot of speculation--a fertile field for political spin. As you recall, we have Hussein Onyango Obama returned from the WWII. The last post in this series, I really tried to contextualize the world to which he returned and the inability of any African man to succeed in colonial structures. Feeling the power, as my Tanzanian informants would have said, "coming down from the top", they had no power and no route to achieve a... Read Full Story
Settling in another part of Siaya, Hussein Onyango Obama marries a second wife and in 1936 Barack Hussein Obama, Sr. (President Obama's Father) is born. Soon after, Hussein Onyanga Obama heads off to World War II. I interviewed a few men in Tanzania back in 1986-87 that had, also, signed on to fight Vita vya Hitla (the War with Hitler, as it is called by Swahili speakers in east Africa). Most of my students seem surprised by this. I guess it just doesn't fit our stereotypes of the African... Read Full Story
It's getting hot in here.... Yep, the race to the White House is getting hotter and hotter.

The Texas GOP is accusing Barack Obama of leaving his own family out to dry after reports surfaced that his half-brother George is living in a run-down hut in Kenya. The Republican Party of Texas released... Read Full Story

Many philosophers speculate that a person’s view of the world is controlled by a heady mixture of genetics, intellect, education and experience. Obama’s Kenyan heritage may well have an impact on the future of US Foreign Policy. Obama’s grandfather, Hussein Onyango Obama, was one of the 75,000 Kenyans who fought in Burma during World War II. This generation returning to Kenya found little opportunity for meaningful employment and limited freedom under British colonial rule on their return... Read Full Story
