Last night, millions of us watched the historic Democratic Party debate. For the first time in America’s history, either a woman or an African American will be the nominee of the Democratic Party and America will have the possibility of electing either an African American or a woman to be president of the United States.

In the Kodak Theatre, we witnessed the promise of America in all its glory. This was much more than a historical Kodak moment. It was also a moment for us to celebrate that on this night, all of America’s children, no matter their color or gender, could reach the mountaintop and grow up to become president of the United States.
