The Michelle Obama Lesson Plan
She rose up and she stood up
And she said, Listen here
And she was our grandmothers
And mothers through the years
This was the lesson they all had tried
To teach us to take in our stride:
****
To rise up and stand up
To rise up and stand up.
Treat us with dignity
We are your women and girls
Treat us as equals
We are your diamonds and pearls
Treat us with respect
We are your soulmates and loves
Treat us as partners
****
When push comes to shove
Give us our due
As we return it to you
Rise up and stand up
Speak up and give a hand up ~
Enough is enough
Enough is enough, through and through
****

(11,833 posts)There's a number of threads today on Michelle, sheshe2. I was able to finally watch her full speech in New Hampshire, thanks to one of the threads. Michelle is one of my all-time favorite speakers. I love her so much.
I voted early today and it feels really good! Are you able to vote early where you are?
