Yes, We Can. Yes, We Did.

A year ago today, our nation voted a new president into office – a biracial president who symbolizes the culmination of years of civil rights activism paired with the love of two cultures and the proof that the blending of two ethnic backgrounds can – and has – contributed monumentally to our nation. The community of interracial families stood that evening in awe as the results were realized, each parent looking at their child and thinking, “Our president looks like you…”
This historic victory was an amazing one. Regardless of whether you are democrat or republican, I think we can all agree that it was a relief to recognize the changes that have taken place in America. We’re not where we would want to be… we are still discriminated against; we are still challenged… and we still face much opposition, but despite the ignorance that plagues the small southern minds of our country, we are moving in the right direction.
Congratulations to President Barack Obama on his One Year anniversary as President of the United States of America.
