I know this is the dawning of a new day, a new era. And still we rise! I am fighting foreclosure, my bills keep mounting, my car with the note is beginning to have problems, paycheck is still the same as five years ago...and still I Rise!! I get some four/five times a week, my children eat...all at a cost...and still I rise, I had a baby at forty-five, am eligible for WIC and am welcome at the food pantries, and still I rise. My son with special needs-needs more, my daughter wants more, my husband can do know more; and still I rise. And last year I spent moments I didn't have participating and contributing to the efforts to elect the first African American President who was foretold to us forty years ago-He is here; and his name is not Jefferson, Washington, Roosevelt He holds no slave name of American slave holders.
I am proud to honor this President the Nation’s
President Barack Hussein Obama
I am not going to play like this isn’t big. This is the biggest moment in World History! The is enormous tremendous, This is the manifestation of millions of prayers. God is truly awesome. And we need a President that recognizes the importance of race-the Human Race. Can ya’ll picture it: Malcolm-holding Emmett on his shoulders with Martin, Medgar, Nate, Harriet, Sojourner, Fredrick, Marcus, Coretta and Yolanda holding hands , triumphantly…can you see the four little black girls in their finest dresses, and Booker T. telling the angels there are more than ten. And what’s Biggie and Tupac rapping about now, I’m not made at ya, James says say it Loud we are overwhelmingly proud. And Marvin turns to say Ya’ll know what’s going on, this is the freedom I told ya’ll bout in my songs. An Old Dirty Bastard says it’s time to clean up, Who do you see at this moment it’s to big for me –Mary McCleod Bethune telling me it’s not to late for school while sharing tea with Betty and Fannie, and my Great grandmother Essie and my grandmother, Rose. Tell me now tell me who do you see, every angel in heaven is looking at this day in History…
Peace.
Love.
Obama.
