Race Matters…. and if you think that it doesn't you've probably never woke up every day of your life and thought about the color of your skin. How people will treat you as a result of that…. at work, at the grocery store, picking your kids up from school. Fuck this “Color Blind” bull shit. If your a Person of Color you can't just forget who you are and where you came from. Obama gives us (People of Color) hope because Racism and the glass celling do exists and effect our lives everyday. If a Black man can be elected President, it's telling the world and this country that change can and will happen. That we haven't forgotten the struggles and the sacrifices that our ancestors have made to be able to have one of our own living on Pennsylvania Avenue.  All's I know is…. It's time to paint the White House Black. DE- Portland, OR
