So Emotional

Dedicated to the memory of Sean Bell and Michael Donald...Respect... ...VOTE...Fight, Fight the Power, You've GOTTA Fight the Powers That Be! (Thanks, Isley Brothers and Public Enemy)

This morning, at 5:41, we went to our polling site. How beautiful it was to see a line of folk waiting to cast their votes to make Senator Barack Obama the next president of America. Son O' Mine, took a picture of me pointing to Senator Obama's name on the ballot. I was so consumed with emotion. That picture will become my screen saver. My mother, my son and I...three generations of people ready for change, hope for a better future. Yes, we can and I know we did!!
