yeah, it was not all apple pie and mom. Walking on the roads in rural Georgia, no sidewalks folks, I had to walk facing traffic and listening behind me for road crossers. There were still lynchings and extreme racism in public interaction, but hope was starting to blossom. Kennedy and Jackie were as representatives of this nation, ideal. Dr. Martin Luther King was still alive, so hope was alive. Rosa Parks had said, hell no you go to the back of the bus! There was outrage by white people at bombings of little girls in church. So there was hope. And lo and behold! Voila! A black man as POTUS with a beautiful and intelligent, caring wife. Queen Ann would only care about getting that servant, in the white house to move faster and to get her food and clothes prepared, just like 150 years ago. I could see her snapping the whip. Still have a loooong road ahead of us, yet there is hope. Ditto on the whole paradigm shift scenario, I hope so too. May true peace come in our lifetime.
