Oprah Attends Barack Obama Inauguration
January 21, 2009 by Jeanne
Oprah Winfrey, who stands in the image below at the side of Reverend Jesse Jackson, attended the inauguration of President Barack Obama in Washington, D.C. yesterday.
Like so many, Oprah braved the cold to be a part of the historic event. I wish I could have been there! It’s particularly touching to see Jesse Jackson since he was standing next to Martin Luther King Jr on that horrible day when he was assassinated, was a huge part of the civil rights movement and also ran for president in 1984 and 1988 (I can remember watching his debate!).
