YOUR VIEWS: Does Obama's win change people's perception of race?
I really enjoyed reading this book. I am waiting for the follow-up!
ReplyDeleteI think his presidency will change many minds. It will break down many of the stereotypes that some people have. He has already done so just by being elected.I hope and prey that President-elect Obama will be able to solve our most pressing problems. I hope he will leave a wonderful legacy. Yes we can.
