Non-Violent Revolution
Man, it's 11:01 PM and the results are in. Barack Obama is the President elect. Extraordinary victory for blacks. First African-American to hold this post. I remember back in the 60's when I was on trips down south. I saw first hand how blacks were not allowed in restaurants. They would have to eat at hot dog stands while whites ate inside the restaurant. Totally fucked up situation. In the 1960's, blacks accounted for about 2 percent of the Pierson High School student population. They were sons and daughters of mostly doctors and lawyers who comprised Azurest and other black neighborhoods in Sag Harbor. Most were at the top of their class and have made valuable contributions to society. Now man, you've got to try to cut back on those Marlboro's. Those outside porches at the White House get cold during winter for cigarette breaks!

It's about change.
