Was watching ESPN, and heard Tony Dungy, the coach of the Indianapolis Colts, said he was thinking of walking away from his multi-million dollar job and working with young men who needed guidance.
Now, Tony Dungy is a philanthropic sort of guy, and he has other, personal reasons to walk away from Indy. But I've never heard him talk that specifically before.
I've been hearing and reading other black folks who intend to plug in and get more active in the next years.
Obama's presence on the ticket persuaded people who had never voted before to go and exercise their civic duty. That includes Tyler Perry.
A new renaissance of racial cooperation --- black people and white people both throwing their full weights into the harness to pull this country down the road to Destiny --- is the very embodiment of Dr. King's vision. Maybe it would take an Obama to pull it off.
Hey, I can dream, too!
