On This Moment

It’s truly rare and special to bear witness to an historic moment such as today.

There are many who have come before and didn’t make it until now – we honor our fallen and departed.

There are many who have made today possible – we celebrate with you.

There is much to come, and more work to be done – we join hands together to make tomorrow brighter, truly equitable and just.

For every equality such as we’ve achieved today, we look toward equity; and the alleviation of poverty, institutional racism, religious intolerance, and injustice in all its forms against women, people of color, and all persons.

Onward and together, we make this a better world.
