Yesterday at Selma, President Obama gave one of the great speeches in American history.

Please, at your leisure, take the 30 minutes to watch it. I just emailed it to my dad, brother & sister and also posted it on Facebook.

I'm grateful to learn more about that bloody march 50 years ago, and to reach forward with optimism toward our future.

Especially, please share this speech with younger folks, friends and family.

Thanks DU!
