Everyone should see this moving discussion in a South Bronx classroom. An Obama presidency will bring change that is much deeper than simply a set of policy positions.

1. My daughter is a first year teacher in the S. Bronx

I think she was very unprepared for how bad it really is there.

ANYTHING that can help there would be welcomed.

This is the best thing I've seen in a looooooooooooooooong time. I hope Barack has the time to see what kind of an impact he's having on people. This is real change; these kids already had good hearts and minds, but now they have opened their eyes because of Barack. And they're not turning back.

Everyone who is inclined should view this video.

5. I just finished watching this video.

Transformational is the keyword. I couldn't believe the way those kids are starting to think and talk about politics and racism now.

WOW

Please take few minutes to watch this video.
