The inspiration of young black youth would be enormous. However I do not want people to think that it is going to solve all the problems within the black community. </p>RhondaCocaThu, 03 Apr 2008 10:44:21 -0000http://www.theatlantic.com/personal/archive/2008/08/obama-leading-us-out-of-the-wilderness/5334#comment-36540914<p>If he was from uptown, I'd be clapping even harder.

Wouldn't it be great if he was from Uptown though? Just joking. I got love for the South Side too.</p>Ta-Nehisi CoatesWed, 26 Mar 2008 17:46:29 -0000http://www.theatlantic.com/personal/archive/2008/08/obama-leading-us-out-of-the-wilderness/5334#comment-36540909<p>Amen! I think Obama represents a different view for our kids. He represents possibility and I think it's important for all of us in Black America to see him whether we completely agree w/all his policies or not.</p><br><br><p>Great post. As a woman who grew up in Harlem, I'm pleased to see the Senator getting some love.</p>DanielleWed, 26 Mar 2008 14:24:48 -0000
