Obama, President: Harlem Part 1 & 2

The night of November 4, 2008, right after Obama's Victory Speech, Harlem was sparkling into joy, relief and euphoria. 'Feeling of accomplishment', state of shock, screams, smiles, dances, and hugs. It felt like landing on the moon. The joy was palpable, surreal, and entire. 'Pure joy' says the NYPD officer who normally would answer 'not allow to talk'. That night brought us all together to celebrate the unexpected. OBAMA. Magic keyword. A concept, a dream, and a need for change even bigger than the man behind it. But we needed the man. Obama O8! Happy 09.
