I honestly never thought I’d see in my lifetime a African-American man win the nomination (from either party) to run for the highest office in the land. I know the race has just begun, but this historic moment makes me think of my parents and grandparents who lived through the horrors of the Jim Crow south and what this means to them, to be able to witness this moment in their lifetime. To quote the future First Lady, Michelle Obama — For the first time in my life, I am proud of my country.

And in honor of that, here’s Curtis Mayfield and The Impressions with “We’re a Winner”. As Curtis says, “we gotta keep on pushin!”
