I still wonder what he meant with that.

As for my agenda..I have none. It's called freedom of speech. I found this info from a website and it's shocking to me.
from the text of the speech. here is the context you were seeking:
Quote:
... I can no more disown him than I can my white grandmother -- a woman who helped raise me, a woman who sacrificed again and again for me, a woman who loves me as much as she loves anything in this world, but a woman who once confessed her fear of black men who passed by her on the street, and who on more than one occasion has uttered racial or ethnic stereotypes that made me cringe. ...
please let me know if you need any more help
