Last month's unveiling of a bust, by sculptor Artis Lane, of Sojourner Truth. I got a serious thrill out of watching so many powerful women acknowledge their debt to this woman. Go watch. (I forgive you if you skip the awful musical number at the end.)

wow. i definitely cried a little bit watching. i read the wikipedia page to remind myself about her life--definitely a lot of things i don't think they told us about in elementary school in there. thanks for the clip.
ReplyDeleteMy pleasure. I should have thought to link to Wikipedia. But I've done it now. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteHow sweet it is that Mrs Obama is the First Lady unveiling this statue.
