The sacrifices we have to make..can we all come together just this ONCE? (193 hits)
Getting my head ready to ship out to Columbus, though tomorrow I will go to Philly for the day to help where I can. The picture insert is of a sister I met at the District Field Organizer meeting. Like us, she is accomplished, like a lot of us she is a caregiver for her mother who is 101-years old. She is in Philly, helping on the campaign.
We are talking the talk and walking the walk. Why does everybody keep saying..what are you doing about it? meaning why we collectively talk and do nothing. I have heard all kinds of things. ..I can't donate $5.00..I don't have time for Obama..etc. At the end of the day, those of us that could did. When it comes time to talk the talk we CAN back it up.it
So let's get on board..last stretch it is not too late, everybody in Ohio should at least give ONE day to help out. One day. This man is carrying the hopes and dreams of a whole "race" on his shoulders!!
People who live in the neighboring states, transport over to Ohio for ONE day or more. Maybe white folks are better organizers. Maybe white folks know how to put differences aside and work together for the good. Maybe if I saw more of us involved I wouldn't have to write this blog.
I can hear James Brown saying "Get Involved" specially in light of the recent developments. Obama is asking us to do what we can to make our dreams come true for America.
