I was proud of Barack Obama yesterday for giving such an important speech on race and race relations in America. He very eloquently put the race conversation in the forefront where all the subtle "under the breath" comments could no longer be done.
For a long time, this country has been dealing with race relations and it's time for it to heal. Obama seems to be the perfect person considering his diverse background and pledge of change, to lead these conversations. He dealt with the issue of being "too black" on one hand, "and not black enough" on the other. He spoke and put the ball back into the court of the American people... what are we going to do about it.
God's Opinion: Behold, how good and pleasant it is for people to live together in unity. - Psalm 133:1
