It hits you, doesn’t it? I’m watching all the usual biography for a first lady and president and listening to her brother and realizing: black Americans – proud, unapologetic, culturally mainstream African-Americans – are now running this show. I knew this was coming. But watching it, even in these tiny ways, is striking.
How great that is; and how long a time it has been coming. Whatever happens in this crazy election season, this matters.
