Let us not wallow in the valley of despair
If Schuyler Patterson, 16 year old Myspace blogger, had delivered a famous speech on 28 August, 1963 on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial:
i looked around me, and it was like they’re waz freedom everywhere. from every town and village and , um, Hamlet? and everyone was getting along good, black dudes and white guys and jews and everybody, you know? and they Where all holding hands, but not in a gay way… not that therz anything wrong with the gays but it just wasn’t like that… and they were all singing this old negro (can I say that?) song:
free at last! free at last!
thx god almighty, we’re free at last!
then my eyes snapped open with a gasp. I wiped the sweat off my face, then rolled over to find my girlfriend Meghan sleeping next to me. and that's when I realized – it was all just a dream :)
