It was very interesting to be in Swaziland and watch the inauguration. All Africa was celebrating. It is a great encouragement to them. The election of an African American has made them proud of America. When they realize the percentage of African Americans in the United States they are even more amazed.
The peaceful exchange of leadership is almost impossible for them comprehend. Let us all pray that this example of freedom and equality will spread through out the world. We see a strong class distinction here among those of the same race. It is mostly based on educational or financial standing.
Many here considered as the lower class have little hope of advancing. They do not have free education even in primary school, so many of the poor receive very little education.
Let us pray that the United States will continue this positive influence around the world.
