We are where we belong
Barack Obama said this today:
“We, the people, declare today that the most evident of truths – that all of us are created equal – is the star that guides us still; just as it guided our forebears through Seneca Falls, and Selma, and Stonewall; just as it guided all those men and women, sung and unsung, who left footprints along this great Mall, to hear a preacher say that we cannot walk alone; to hear a King proclaim that our individual freedom is inextricably bound to the freedom of every soul on Earth.”
and Stonewall.
We knew Stonewall belonged in that list. We just didn’t know they knew it. Now we know they know, and that’s entirely new.
