Barack Obama Quote
Let’s celebrate Black History Month with one of President Obama’s best quotes: “I will never forget that the only reason I’m standing here today is because somebody, somewhere stood up for me when it was risky. Stood up when it was hard. Stood up when it wasn’t popular. And because that somebody stood up, a few more stood up. And then a few thousand stood up. And then a few million stood up. And standing up, with courage and clear purpose, they somehow managed to change the world.”
Never be afraid to stand up for what’s right.
