Throughout his life, Craig Robinson watched over his little sister, First Lady Michelle Obama. Now Robinson is carving his own path as Oregon State head basketball coach. Jim Axelrod reports.
The Robinson family is my prayers tonight as they mourn the matriarch of their family. Craig and Michelle, my heart is with you as you honor your mother just after celebrating Mother's Day almost two weeks ago. Your mom is now with her beloved husband. Rest in peace to them both.
This is what a true american family looks like. They happen to be Black, and there are many others like them around the country--blk, asian, latino, native american and white. Ethics, family, values. Bravo to Mr. and Mrs. Robinson for raising smart kids with huge hearts. Passion and purpose.
I still tear up thinking about the magnitude of their accomplishments. So proud of the Entire family. Mrs. Robinson will be missed. Condolences to the family.
It's so easy to see the beautiful former First Lady was brought up in the right environment, and the love she was shown she showed to the rest of the world. Damn, how did we end up with Melania 😭😭😭😭😭
I have lived all my life in black neighborhoods, and proud to say I have learned SO much about black culture in America, and how the race have been screwed by the system. I am Hispanic and I know all my neighbors, they look out for me and my family, we live in bad neighborhoods because the system says so, not all the houses are bad, I want to say for the most part all are brick built, its the HATE created by MEDIA, the SYSTEM. Black Americans are so accepting to any culture. I am not that other race who will support HATE, just not going to. In another 20 years this country will be filled with more immigrants, so all this hate is really uncalled for, seriously think of all your children and STOP HATE, if you continue to promote hate, GUESS WHAT, your children will be minorities in the future, and will be victim of it as well. JUST STOP IT !
I only wish they could hear you. But you can't rationalize with a racist. They're lead by hate and hate can care less about logic..... Unfortunately hate has to be stopped in other ways......
To Michelle and Craig and the Obama Family, Thank you for sharing your Mother, Marion Robinson, with America and the world. We so needed to know and see the strength of a Black woman in the family, in the community, in society and around the world. Thank you Marion for being the example of God's love that we all needed to see. Your torch has been psssed and we will gladly take the torch to carry it forward to future generations.
I’m glad I watched this. Mr. Robinson quickly corrected the “ narrative “ that he and Michell grew up in poverty when he said his father was able to pay for him to attend Princeton. Well done Mr. R .
From the way she described how her husband felt about his kids, it doesn't sound like he'd be all that surprised that Michelle would be First Lady, and maybe not at all.
My opinion might be out of context and controversial but here we go . First of this family is a high quality people!! I have met alote of fine quality african americans that im so in love with their stories of upbringing just true inspiration. The have values goals and a pourpose in life. As a latino induvidual i feel very close connected to these famielies as "we" all have that in common. Not just latinos, asians, natives , from all races . But the sad thing is this core of famaly values is on a huge decline in America!! Thos type of fine quality hard working educated individuals only apply to last century folks. New generations are too focus on the easy low quality way. No morals ,no values, no EDUCATION. All they care about is money buying expensive items name brands lisent to hip hop imitate these so called "idols".. so saddened at least for me that we are loosing all these high quality individuals that made this country a better place for us all. I have collected numerous stories from fine people like this family that have helped changed the face of this country with out flexing who they are or how they contributed..I really hope who ever reads this if they have kids raise your kids to be fine quality indivudials like this family and not the trash content generating that brings no substance to our society. Less social media more books more study more education we are becoming a country of idiots
A lady who has quetly helped to make the world a much better place. Condolences to the Obamas who have lost a vital support in their lives. from Trinidad and Tobago ❤

Michelle Robinson made an excellent CHOICE when she chose Barack Obama. In terms of those early morning basketball practices, that’s what Michael Jordan did, on his own, to become one of the world’s greatest basketball players. 👩🏽🦱🇺🇸

But she was accomplished before becoming first lady. She came from a struggling class in South Chicago, went to Princeton, Yale and became a lawyer. She mentored President Obama so was ahead of him in his quest for law.

He took a 90% pay cut in order to do what he loved.
It's so easy to see the beautiful former First Lady was brought up in the right environment, and the love she was shown she showed to the rest of the world. Damn, how did we end up with Melania 😭😭😭😭😭
Do what you love, the money will come.
@@myaussiebabe1 michael you mean

@@raultiangson5666 - you're an immigrant. Where did your family originate from
Thrs Hwll His last name tells it all, it look asian.
Blessed you.❤🙏🙏
I love this story.
Lived in the same neighborhood never met them I did meet Michelle working at the University of Chicago all I can say is they make me so proud
Follow your heart, not your wallet. Taking the pay cut is worth it.
Amen.
I love this family! More power to you❤️

These are REAL family values in action

Inspiring!!!
respect is the name of the game,
Always respect
Pure love that’s key.
BEAUTIFUL STORIES CAN'T GET BETTER THEN THAT ❤❤❤
I really love and respect this family.Arabic person.
A beautiful family so much love each other ❤❤
When a family works hard and give their children all they've got there is no telling what those children will become .
Aww!
I’m so sad about Mrs Robinson… look at how beautiful she is… May she rest in peace. My heart breaks for Mrs. Obama, Mr. Robinson and family.
I hate how they use ‘all black neighborhood’ as if it’s a disadvantage.
Love Marian!!
opn20 Thank you Marian.
Great family
american role model family.
FROM A SIMPLE BACKGROUND.IMPRESSING INDEED.
From the way she described how her husband felt about his kids, it doesn't sound like he'd be all that surprised that Michelle would be First Lady, and maybe not at all.
RIP 😢Marian Robinson
mother and father and a nuclear family is important.
The Obama are blessed to have had such beautiful loving family Bless them always my deepest condolence to the entire family 🎉🎉❤❤
Hey mommmsss.. Queennnn
I liked the interview but it focused more on Craig Robinson than Michelle's mother.
Lol. Always click on the arrow & read the DESCRIPTION! The GOAL of this video *is* to talk about Craig Robinson
Wow
Does anyone know how did Mrs Robinson died? In loving memory of mother Robinson.

Um yeah. With good reason.
Mrs Robinson is a goddess and l wish she was my mother
Excellent new goodbye. Her legacy left us with her off spring inspiring civil unrest and hatred for this country.
They act like this type of black family is so unusual. They are not by any means. It's just that they have the fame. Good people.
Is it just me or this commentor sounded a little shady?
Hey MR if you call the Laura Ingraham show identify yourself don't be a hit and run that was you with a high pitched voice

Get big Mike first lady Michelle to play...being first lady isn't an occupation
Quero o divórcio da malia obama e meu dinheiro já que não existe projeto nenhum ok
VERY ODD
Hahaha Hahaha big Mike
Really??? Two sons
Definitely your two appendages, you need to get removed.
It amazes me how they act like becoming the first lady is a big accomplishment. It's an unexpected position for whoever is married to the president.
