Election Day 10:30 PM | 5 comments [That name will soon be added to Firefox] As soon as I heard it announced, I didn't scream "oh my god, my president is black!" I thought wow, I've got a story to tell my children. Grandchildren. Great grandchildren. I thought about my 88 year old great grandmother sitting in her living room, rollers in her hair, staying up way past her bed time to watch the results of this election. I imagine her crying; crying because she never thought she would see this day come for her self and the five generations of ancestry below her. I have been bumpin' that Jeezy though. Our president is a very well educated black man, guys. Damn. I don't know how much I'll have to hear about this from my republican peers and or people who are on the bandwagon of McCain's camp simply because that's what they've been taught. I'm ready for the racial slander and disrespect but I'm also excited to hear the praise, and people of older generations speak about how accomplished they feel. Barack is about to make his speech. I've never been more ready to listen. What is possible? Any and everything. Labels: election day. |
