And Speaking Of The Black Press, Check Out This Budding Young Black Journalist, Damon Weaver!


Oh,my goodness! This little kid is absolutely adorable & extremely intelligent.
Damon Weaver is a 10 yr-old budding black journalist on a serious quest to interview President Barack Obama.This is a prime example of what I was just talking about in my last post.Damon Weaver is one of the many black youths out there who got inspired by the fact that we have the first black president in history.This makes the whole political arena more interesting & attainable to young black boys & girls.No longer can we,as black people,disassociate ourselves with politics by claiming that the president won't do shit for the black community anyway.This is not a faux black president,like Bill Clinton. Barack Obama is truly the first black president. For the first time, black folks can see some of themselves in the first family. That's exciting!
