Obama is the next president of the USA. I can’t believe it even as I am typing. It is 12:13am and Obama is speaking the greatest speech of my lifetime. I see Oprah and Jesse crying. I have called everyone that I can (new phone, no numbers transferred) and I could only say the following, “My fellow black American, we have a president that looks like us.” I screamed and yelled. Calmed down and then got even more excited. The emotions are all over the place. THIS IS CRUCIAL. The preceding sentences were toned down, below is how I feel inside.
BARACK OBAMA IS THE FIRST AFRICAN AMERICAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE. HE IS QUALIFIED. HE CAN LEAD US TO A GREAT FUTURE. I CAN’T BELIEVE MY EYES!!! NEGRO PRESIDENT! NEGRO PRESIDENT! NEGRO PRESIDENT! AMAZING!
The music is catching my spirit and lifting it to new heights. This is our time. I don’t mean blacks, I mean ALL AMERICANS! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!
No words can truly describe this feeling but an analogy may work. Think back to the most amazing thing you can remember. Got it? Obama being elected is at least 100 million times greater. It means so much. 45 years ago we fought for our equality and won it. However, this is the true realization of equality. This is our proving ground. We can now look on our fellow Americans with the same intense pride that they feel. My mind is being expanded as we speak. LIFT EVERY VOICE AND SING.
Do you think that W.E.B DuBois expected this? Jackie Robinson? Frederick Douglass? Dred Scott? Booker T. Washington? Harriet Tubman? Sojourner Truth? Maya Angelou? THIS IS AMERICA. THIS IS THE COUNTRY WE BROKE OUR BACKS TO BUILD!
I cannot believe this…what a day tomorrow will be!
Down Goes MAGA!
