President Obama gave this speech to the NAACP. I feel that he is the first president in a long time who "gets it." I love that he admits there is less discrimination now than ever in this country, which I also believe, but that there is discrimination and prejudice even in 2009. There is not place for such in the United States of America, or anywhere for that matter. It is not right to treat anyone differently because of the color of their skin, who they pray to, whether they buy or make tacos on the corner, or who they love.
Thank you, Mr. President.
