The bridge walk to equality

This 50th Anniversary of Selma reminds me, as we watch our Pres. & First Lady walk across that bridge, how far we have come … how far we must go. I recall the day of President Obama’s inauguration when our dear friend Mary Kate O’Connell gathered some folk to watch. I took 8 x 10s of my grandmother & my father and set them to face the television so they could “see” a Black man take his oath of office. It was a very emotional day. I think that in 2017, I will take photos of my Mom and her mother to “see” our first old white lady president take that oath. I am counting on Hillary just as I counted on Barack.
