Martin Luther King, Jr. made history by being a leader in the Civil Rights movement. He peacefully lead people to fight to end racial segregation and racial discrimination. Yesterday was a day to celebrate his efforts and achievements.
Today is the day we celebrate another man making history. Barack Obama was inaugurated this morning making him the first African-American President in American history. It is still pretty amazing to me that a person of color finally got elected to lead this country. This is another step forward in what Dr. King was fighting for.
Now that he is President we need to organize and let him know what it is we need. For example, Quality Health Care for all, youth rights, and green jobs. Hopefully President Obama and his administration will make our obstacles easier to overcome.
Here's some pictures from our Inauguration Celebration:
