OUR NEW PRESIDENT! "MR. Barack Obama".


Is this crazy or what? Although I have to admit, I'm not too fond of politics. It seems like such a nasty part of our society. All the lying, cheating, and deceitfulness. It's almost sad sometimes what our nation has been exposed to. But we asked for change and that's what we've received! Tonight as Americans, and most importantly for some of us as African Americans we were able to experience HISTORY. Our first African American President, wow. Can you believe it?

Many many years from now we're going to be telling our great/grandchildren about this historical day; The day our first Black President was elected. And how we were lucky enough to have been alive to witness it.



Wooo WHoooo OBAMA! 11.o4.2oo8


"Rosa Parks sat so Martin Luther King could walk.
Martin Luther King walked so Obama could run.
Obama ran so our kids could fly!"

"Like anybody, I would like to live a long life. Longevity has its place. But I'm not concerned about that now. I just want to do God's will. And He's allowed me to go up to the mountain. And I've looked over. And I've seen the Promised Land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land!.."
-Dr. Martin L. King




"We must begin to understand that a revolution entails not only the willingness to lay our lives on the firing line and get killed. In some ways, this is an easy commitment to make. To die for the revolution is a one-shot deal; to live for the revolution means taking on the more difficult commitment of changing our day-to-day patterns."
-Francis Beal



"The right of every American to first-class citizenship is the most important issue of our time."
-Jackie Robinson


"I have learned that success is to be measured not so much by the position that one has reached in life as by the obstacles which he has overcome while trying to succeed. Out of the hard and unusual struggle through which he is compelled to pass, he gets a strength, a confidence, that one misses whose pathway is comparatively smooth by reason of birth and race.
-Booker T. Washington
