Glory Glory Hallelujiah


HIS TRUTH IS MARCHING ON


Look at the Crowds even back here!

What a day.

I got to see most of it from the jumbatrons with my sister and her niece-in-law. Then my poor sister landed in the medical tent from the cold combined with a stomach virus.
The Medical Tent was a testimony to the determination of a people to see change happen-with the FIERCE URGENCY OF NOW. Mothers with small children braved the cold, a five month old pregnant woman went into early contractions in the medical tent and was first in line for the ambulance (lots of luck, the roads were blocked for miles). Men of all ages who stood for four hours in dress socks and work shoes dethawed their toes under the round superspace heater, a diabetic started shivering, and the effects of people who partied hardy the previous night combined with the cold that dehydrated them into exhaustion found solace on an army cot under tin foil "space blankets." Nothing was stopping these people from witnessing History.

Glory Glory Hallelujiah, his truth is marching on.
