註釋
This inspiring and thought-provoking new book (dedicated to President Barack Obama, the First Family and all of the Civil Rights Leaders) offers fresh, unique insight into the impact of the most historically significant election in U.S. history. It gives a voice to the generation of young people whose votes made a revolutionary statement heard around the world. The colorful and profound collection of essays explores the impact of the election for the essay writers, their families, their nation, and for the global community at large. Reaching back through previous generations to share powerfully moving personal and family stories of oppression, struggle, hope, change, and triumph, the essay contributors discuss topics of racism, racial barriers, and their view of the possibility and potential of true equality for all. Since younger voters turned out in record numbers and were one of the biggest keys to Obamas win, it would be a mistake not to listen to what they have to say. A portion of the net proceeds from the sale of this book will help create scholarships for college students across the United States.
