An Inauguration for the Ages


The spirits of the civil rights movement--and movements for social justice everywhere--were with Obama on this historic Inauguration Day. Artist John Mavroudis imagines the occasion --one witnessed not in flesh and blood, but in the bonds of justice and peace.
The historical figures that helped make Obama's inauguration possible. The site includes a key to who all the people are. This is really remarkable... and I've got some learning to do about who many of these people are. I'm just a typical white girl with a long way to go.

And a beautifully touching video by Amy Dixon-Kolar:
