Barack is to be inaugurated today

Barack is to be inaugurated today. I so hope all goes well. It will be-it is- so inspiring to think of him taking office. I feel better about this country than I have in a long time. I guess, in my whole lifetime. He is such a symbol of hope. A shining example of what can be-that dreams can come true-not just Barack's dream but the whole country's dream, my dream, my friend's dreams, Martin Luther King's dreams... It is a new beginning, a time of hope.

A beginning of true freedom from oppression and a beginning of real equality among people. It won't be perfect, but hopefully much better. We are leaving pettiness and hatred behind and embarking on a new path, a new story for this country.
