Obama Breaks Down in Tears at Dorothy Height's Funeral
Posted on 30 April 2010
Obama was weeping openly as he watched the service for Dr. Height who changed the course of history by standing up for the rights of the Blacks in America along with her comrade-at-arms Rosa Parks.
Mr Obama watched as Dr Height's coffin was carried into the cathedral, and said he was here because of her as he took the podium to deliver the eulogy for Dr Height today.
The US president was joined by his wife Michelle, and Vice President Joe Biden and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi for the service.
Dr Height died last week at 98 after a long illness. She was a pioneering voice of the civil rights movement who remained active and outspoken well into her 90s.
Dr Height led the National Council of Negro Women for decades and marched with the Rev Martin Luther King Jr.
"You're NO whackjob" the male TX Teacher angrily rebuked me in front of his students.
A large group of very attentive middle schoolers from Texas as I recall. After sharing
for 12 minutes or so all the whats, whys, wherefores about the Vigil I got the usual
question - "Has President Obama ever come out to talk to you?" My standard
reply - "I think the Pr. Obama is FAR to smart to come out to see me.
Have you heard of Fox News? How much do you think Fox News would
love to have a photo of Pr. Obama here talking to some whackjob with
tattoos on his face, SO THEY COULD HURT PR. OBAMA?"
"YOU ARE NO WHACKJOB," the male TX Teacher angrily rebuked me in
front of his students.
Have I ever received a stronger affirmation?

Daniel from Ind: "how many 10s of thousands of people you've touched deeply...."
On Facebook, from Daniel, a mid 20's fellow I spoke with at the vigil
maybe 10 months ago, and who remains a friend on Facebook:
"I was walking around downtown Indianapolis the other day, and I
saw this group of artists doing a street installation. We started chatting,
and it turns out they're from DC. I asked them if they knew about
you, and they lit up and said yes. Out of 300 million people in this
country! We had fun speculating on how many 10s of thousands
people you've touched deeply. :)"
Also:
"Just wanted to let you know you're on my list of "heroes." Of the ten
I listed, you, Dean Kamen and Bill Moyers are the only ones alive. :)
My Heroes

I replied:
"Daniel, your kind words of encouragement mean an enormous amount to me.
I've been given sooooo much that I so desperately wish the share. Thanks.

Of course, to them I'm just another type of tree, or bush,
uh, make that tree; one that at times dispenses peanuts,
but it is pretty magical none the less. Most are pretty
skittish, but some are kind, gentle, nice. Just now
one lightly leaped onto my lap as I was typing, sat there
for a moment, as I typed, and then as I moved my hand down
to the bag by my side where the peanuts were, he casually
strolled across the keyboard to see what I was getting
him, erasing my work.
Thoughtless.
Hmmmmm. Secret Service? Nah.
Plop, he lands on my arm, he just came for another.

The 6 weeks for SL's neck is 1/3 up!!!!
Hi. I'm getting increasingly harsh, slow, and tired. Please
understand. There are hours that are relatively pain free,
and many hours of almost totally frozen neck, and extreme
headache. My focus remains good, but my time, energy
and hours are being significantly shortened. Again, please
try to be patient with me.
I see no indication that there is any long-term damage.
I see now that my resting computer postures for the last
15 months have been destroying my neck (duh). I've slipped
a disk in my neck, or something like that, and almost
always such problems heal themselves in about 6 weeks. I'm
1/3 of the way there!
