[at-l] Just curious

I am watching.  My eyes will be leaking when we have an inauguration of a black president and the fact that he is black is not mentioned.  Kinda like when a football player is inducted into the hall of fame.  His color is no longer mentioned.  It just is.  About 10 years ago I was the Keynote speaker at The 100 Black men conference here in Jax(Google it, great org.)  I ask if you had the power to choose, would you rather live to be 80 as a black man or 60 as a white man.  When ya wanna live to 80 we have arrived.  When Garth Brooks starts talking Ebonics to patronize the next prez. we aint there yet.

Is anyone else watching TV and smiling and leaking a bit around the eyes?

Happy day!
