America's First Black President

Although he is still president Elect, he is working hard to create bridges as he prepares his team for the upcoming year. I have hope he will continue on the path he set out on of listening to the people, and standing up for the little guy.

I am grateful for America's First Black President Elect, and looking forward to his innaugeration

By Pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)

First they came for the communists, and I did not speak out--
because I was not a communist;
Then they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out--
because I was not a socialist;
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out--
because I was not a trade unionist;
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out--
because I was not a Jew;
Then they came for me--
and there was no one left to speak out for me.
