The Better Angels of our Nature - Congratulations to our President-elect and former Whitney Young student Michelle Obama
Today we are very proud that our next First Lady, Michelle Obama, is a graduate of our school - Whitney Young Magnet High School in Chicago. When I walked into this school some 20 years ago this upcoming spring, I knew nothing about it, but fell in love with the students, the staff, and our wonderful diversity. Last night, that diversity and the promise it holds for our nation and the tale that it relates of our past was made manifest.
