Whether you like it or not America, you have elected your first African-American president in the nation’s history. Barack Obama is now the president-elect, and will be sworn in Jan. of 2009. So ends the Bush Administration, and what a relief. This wasn’t the change I myself was seeking, but I am certainly willing to give Mr. Obama a chance. After all, this is the U.S. we are talking about here. If we can give Wall street and banks all the chances they want, we can atleast give Barack one.
Over the past 200+ years, America has been strained with adversity, racism, white supremacy, homosexuality and more. But we are overcoming those obstacles and are challenging them with our hearts. There is still a lot of work to be done, but one thing is for sure… last night made world history, and most importantly American History. I think that is something to be extremely proud of. We looked past the color of a man’s skin, we almost elected a woman into our white house, and got even closer to electing a VP, also a woman, into the office. It is a proud day to be an American, and I give president-elect Obama my best wishes to him.
With that being said. it has been a busy couple of weeks, I think it’s been about a month since i’ve posted. I’ve shot sports, photojournalism, and even some quality candid family portraits. I recently sent in a resume to Boston Globe to try to get an internship, wish me luck!
