I'm Proud.

I really couldn't think of a better title, because it hasn't sunk in.
I'm fighting beack tears right now as I type this because for all of the discrimination that my people have faced for hundreds of years didn't matter. All of the racists and naysayers who tried to derail this election didn't matter. Yes, we did it. This is a man who genuinely wants to change the lives of EVERY American, and put our country on the level that it deserves to be. And for that I'm proud. But to add on to the fact that this man is black is awe-inspiring. I remember when I was little I used to dream of being president, but it seemed like a dream that wouldn't happen, because unfortunately people like me weren't seen as capable. But this is possible for everyone. I just can't say it anymore we have the first black President. the 44th President of the United States of America is Barack Obama. Dr. King, Malcolm X, W.E.B DuBois, Medgar Evers, Coretta Scott King, Jesse Jackson, George Thomas (my grandfather, who was the first black vice principal in Hartford, Ct. Which makes me even more proud.),and for every other black American who fought for a chance. You didn't fight in vain. For that I thank you. I am a black man. Damn, doesn't it look good. And I thank EVERY American, black, white, hispanic, etc who voted for a new America. Thank You.
