In recognition of this past Memorial Day weekend I want to take a moment to thank all of the brave men and women who fought for and died for our great country.
I want to give a special thanks to those men and women of color who endured the challenges of racism and discrimination in the earlier times of the military. These great men and women set into motion a movement that eventually shattered old stereotypes of Blacks that called into question the competence, intelligence, bravery, patriotism and leadership potential. These courageous men and women who fought in every major American conflict dating back to the revolutionary war, showed all in the United States and the rest of the world that African Americans were not only great patriots, but capable of doing great things in leadership and in life when given an opportunity. God Bless all of you and thank you for your service to our country.
