As I notice the red ,white and blue colors all over the quilt. I couldn't help notice the black and white letters than stand out. It was letters of many details,one with signature from Harry Truman, also a letter from CPL Virgil C Childress with number 33I27658 125 th (mobile). There were many faces of African American troops,that fought for America's freedom before there had freedom from slavery.
As I notice a coffin all drape with the American flag,standing at the funeral only the faces of African American Soldiers,dress in uniformed.
Then it really hit me that the struggle,heart ache death and pain, on this historic day November 4,2008,our 44 th President Barrack Obama had made the impossible possible, only then I really heard the cries out from the graves. As I was finish writing down my thought the last thing I notice was the Amendment 15(1870) States shall not denied the right of citizens based on race, color or previous condition of servitude i.e. slavery.
