Black History: Special Delivery!!
106 Year old Virginia McLaurin never thought she would live to see a black president…..Let alone get a chance to meet him. This White House video says it all. Virginia was dancing with pride and joy. She was born less than 50 years after the Emancipation Proclamation and the end of the Civil War. She has lived through segregation, wars, and many other triumphs and tragedies! Check out this White House video!

Love this one immensely! Your dedication to African American history is wonderfully inspired. For the masses who remain uninformed, this is something to grow on, because,” Lest you know your past, you are doomed to repeat it” And for youngsters, how can they dream a future when they don’t know their past? The ones before us are our inspiration. Thanks for what you do.
