On the way to the Inauguration in HD

We fought through the crowds and the cold, so you wouldn't have to, check it out.

Inaugural Address

By President Barack Hussein Obama My fellow citizens: I stand here today humbled by the task before us, grateful for the trust you've bestowed, mindful of the sacrifices borne by our ancestors. I thank President Bush for his service to our nation -- (applause) -- as well as the generosity and cooperation he has shown throughout this transition. Forty-four Americans have now taken the presidential oath. The words have been spoken during rising tides of prosperity and the still waters of peace. Yet, every so often, the oath is taken amidst gathering clouds and raging storms. At these moments, America has carried on not simply because of the skill or vision of those in high office, but because we, the people, have remained faithful to the ideals of our forebears and true to our founding documents. So it has been; so it must be with this generation of Americans. That we are in the midst of crisis is now well understood. Our nation is at war against a far-reaching network of violence and hatred. Our economy is badly weakened, a consequence of greed and irresponsibility on the part of some, but also our collective failure to make hard choices and prepare the nation for a new age. Homes have been lost, jobs shed, businesses shuttered. Our health care is too costly, our schools fail too many -- and each day brings further evidence that the ways we use energy strengthen our adversaries and threaten our planet. These are the indicators of crisis, subject to data and statistics. Less measurable, but no less profound, is a sapping of confidence across our land; a nagging fear that America's decline is inevitable, that the next generation must lower its sights. Today I say to you that the challenges we face are real. They are serious and they are many. They will not be met easily or in a short span of time. But know this America: They will be met. (Applause.) On this day, we gather because we have chosen hope over fear, unity of purpose over conflict and discord. On this day, we come to proclaim an end to the petty grievances and false promises, the recriminations and worn-out dogmas that for far too long have strangled our politics. We remain a young nation. But in the words of Scripture, the time has come to set aside childish things. The time has come to reaffirm our enduring spirit; to choose our better history; to carry forward that precious gift, that noble idea passed on from generation to generation: the God-given promise that all are equal, all are free, and all deserve a chance to pursue their full measure of happiness. (Applause.) In reaffirming the greatness of our nation we understand that greatness is never a given. It must be earned. Our journey has never been one of short-cuts or settling for less. It has not been the path for the faint-hearted, for those that prefer leisure over work, or seek only the pleasures of riches and fame. Rather, it has been the risk-takers, the doers, the makers of things -- some celebrated, but more often men and women obscure in their labor -- who have carried us up the long rugged path towards prosperity and freedom.

We are a million miles from the Trans Atlantic Slave Trade and Mr. Barack Obama becoming president of The United States of America is another hurdle that has been cleared but there is millions of miles to go before we reach the true meaning of Dr. King's dreams. White Supremacy still exist because niggas still exist; you can not destroy one without destroying the other. Debrief your mind, we are not niggas. We are the indigenous people of the world, we are not niggas;debrief your mind.

[BestOfBoondocks]

it was a joke dude

but honestly words are only as powerful as one makes them.

Words and their meanings are interchangable.

So instead of eliminating the word nigga from our language and only refer to it as a term of racial ridicule, why not embrace it and recreate it's meaning.

If you destroy the word then you have failed against the supremacists and they will always be able to use that word as an insult.

Spinning it positvely takes the power from them and gives it to us

MIND DEBRIEFED

[MikeRocks25]

My mind is so far from the nigga that it does not exist in my world. A nigga is a being created by White Supremacy, so that would make White Supremacy the nigga's creator, it's god. If it was not for White Supremacy creating the nigga, the nigga would not exist. Debrief your mind;rethink your thoughts.

Exactly. All is material shit got us fucked up.
