A woman by the name of Addie Whisenant, who is also African American, was Obama's White House Director of African American Media. Here's an article about her with a brief bio: http://www.ncat.edu/events/2015/04/lecture-series.html
I can't find a direct connection between her and Beranton Whisenant Jr. who was from Jacksonville, Florida originally. Addie is from Atlanta originally so I'm wondering if maybe they're cousins.
Yes, I read that but it doesn't rule out that the woman who worked for Obama is a relative. I'd said maybe cousin but they could be related in any number of ways.
