Now THAT'S Reparation

A brief aside…

What we witnessed last night in the election of Barack Obama is true reparation. Reparation: 1) compensation for a wrong, 2) restoration of something to good condition

Reparation is not doling out cash arbitrarily like graft or hush money (“Now don’t talk about it anymore.”) Reparation is to "repair", to make it right in action. And, whether you were for or ag’in’ Obama’s candidacy, there is no mistaking that rips in the pages of our American history are being repaired.

As I write this, a young lady on CNN says, “The melting pot of America has spoken.” I believe the very strength of America lies in its diversity. Let us trust in it and move on with no fear.

Peace,
