SUMMARY:Birth of Barack Obama (1961)
DESCRIPTION:Barack Hussein Obama II was born on 4 August 1961 in Honolulu
 \, Hawai'i\, to Ann Dunham of Kansas and Barack Obama Sr. of Kogelo\, Nya
 nza\, Kenya — a Luo economist who had come to the United States to study.
  Elected in 2008\, he served two terms as the forty-fourth president of t
 he United States\, the first African American to hold the office. The dat
 e is marked here as a point of record in U.S. and diasporic political his
 tory: a life shaped by continental African lineage\, Hawaiian and Indones
 ian childhoods\, Chicago's South Side organizing tradition\, and the long
  Black freedom struggle that made the office reachable at all. Communitie
 s across the United States\, Kenya\, and the wider diaspora mark the day 
 with reflection\, service\, and civic education.\nRegion: United States\,
  North America\nMore: https://www.perankharchive.com/events/4148a053-275c
