I had the most amazing time in life this past Tuesday! I stood with the people of Harlem, and witnessed the people shut down 125th to party in the middle of the streets.

Please, forgive me… I know this post is a few days late but I am still recuperating from history being made (and all the parties thereafter). This was better then a Super Bowl Win and New Years Eve times ten! I, Kitty Bradshaw witnessed people hugging, kissing, crying, dancing upon hearing Obama become this Nation’s first Black President. Besides being born, graduating from High School, and Graduating College…. November 4th was the biggest moment in my life. I will tell my children I witnessed 100% pure Joy, Happiness… Pandemonium in the streets of Harlem… I can’t believe I was there!

I mean this from the bottom of my soul… Praise God! I saw people of all races… even the tourist… I SAW A FRENCH CATHOLIC PRIEST AND A JEWISH GUY DANCING IN THE STREETS!!!!! All walks of life rejoiced for Obama… I am so emotional just typing this because I know I will never witness anything like this ever again!

Then just when you thought it couldn’t get any better…. BRAND NEW SILVER MTA TRAINS CAME DOWN 125TH!!!! So everyone’s eyes lite up in amazement… and you hear the voices in the background, “What the hell are trains doing coming down the middle of the streets???!!!!!” So the truck drivers, who were hauling these trains couldn’t get by so they had no choice but to sit there and wait… so Everyone hoped on the trains and started dancing and taking pictures…. these trains were larger then life like Elephants or Giraffes smack dab in the middle of 125th!!!!

It started to rain… who cares?! OBAMA IS THE 44TH PRESIDENT!!!!!!! PRAISE GOD!!!!!

I witnessed so much… I just don’t know how to express it. I am so lucky, so blessed that I had the opportunity to witness such a moment! This was bigger then a moment, this was bigger than a page in the history books… This was change! America is ready to change! I believe that after witnessing people from all over the world come together in Harlem! I saw Japanese News Reporters dancing in the streets laughing and cheering… I can’t believe the European Tourist came to Harlem to party! If you weren’t there, you missed the event of the Century! I saw the Africans, West Indians, Puerto Ricans, Colombians, Cubans dancing (these were all the dialects my ear could recognize)! I saw Italian Tourist… there are too many to name…. as much as I witnessed, I know I missed a lot. It was too much to take in!!!!

I got home @ 2am… and had 3 hours sleep before I had to go to work! Wednesday, a lot of people called out from work…. but I have bigger plans! I am going to Washington D.C. on January 20th 2009 to witness Barack Obama be sworn in and officially become the United States 44th President! I think anyone who doesn’t go is a fool! I challenge everyone to make plans now to be there!
