I truly believe that Obama is the right person for this nation in our time of crisis, and I have hopes that he is going to be a great president. But one of the main reasons I worked so hard for his election campaign is because I knew if he got elected, when today came he would by his very image and being change the American story. Today America starts a new chapter and today we start to write that story together…all races, beliefs, creeds know today they not only have a place at the table…they are welcomed. Like the Grinch’s heart, when we close our eyes tonight knowing we have inaugurated the first black president of the united states of America the hearts and self-esteem and joy of black folk, especially young black men, grows a hundred-fold today.
I am always crying…but today I am sobbing.
