‘What he means to the psyche of the African diaspora — we can’t measure it’: Obama rejuvenates, captivates Toronto fans....
I attend these events to be rejuvenated; to leave, walking on air, juiced up and convinced that there are so many citizens doing so much work in our priority neighbourhoods to keep our youth believing in a future not linked to “easy money, easy death” of the gangstas. I’m rarely disappointed.
Over there are students from this school and that. An entrepreneurial group here. A table with four from Trevor Massey’s leadership training group. Kofi Amoama of Youth Employment Services is getting love from those he’s helped. And this entire table is populated by the Men of Distinction, a subset of the Rexdale community outreach of Trust 15.
What do you know about Obama?

Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
