In case you missed the news around the world, this weekend Americans of all ages, races, gender, sexual orientation, and religion will gather in Washington D.C. to witness the swearing in of Barack Obama as the 44th President of the United States. I will be there!
There are news stories circulating about the absence of Black people at work. There were millions of people like myself who requested PTO/Vacation time months ago.
I am not sure where you will be for the next few days, but I definitely know where you should be on Tuesday January 20, 2009. Find a television, the radio, follow the events on Facebook, or even Myspace---this is an event of a lifetime.
The next time I write to you...my President will be Black. :-)
