Why I'm Happy, Why I'm Not satisfied



From http://www.illdoctrine.com

I think what I love about this video si that it sort of says a lot about what I'm thinking - I'm happy about Obama being president, but it does not satisfy me. It does not mean the US (or any country) is post-racial when they have a minority president. The work isn't done, racism still exists, a huge step toward Martin Luther King's dream, but it has not been realized.

Um, yes. The video is about 3 minutes long.

Great video! I agree whole-heartedly. This idea of "living in the Promised Land" seems to breed complacency. I never want to just sit back and let the world turn, thinking I've already reached my peak. I'd rather keep trying to be better. Keeps life interesting. :-)

You're welcome! Catching on your scroll fulfills my compulsive need to try to get things when I have no room on my scroll.
