On Tuesday we will all be witnesses to an historic event, the inauguration of America’s first African-American president.  And how amazing that this is taking place the day after we celebrate and honor one of our nation’s greatest heroes, the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr.  As you know we are starting our study of Forced Immigration too — a consideration of those who came to America against their will from the continent of Africa.   All of these events seem to be coming together for us in a really unique and wonderful way.
