Do you hear an echo?

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

Just heard this...

Rosa sat so Martin could march.
Martin marched so Barack could run.
Barack ran so our children could fly.

I have tears in my eyes thinking of what all this means. To me as a white woman who is the mother to a half black, half white daughter. To my daughter as she navigates life between these two worlds. With hope in my heart that healing is beginning.
