As most of us know or should know, Juan Williams is a conservative political pundit on Fox News (their Sunday show in particular). Most of the time I am loath to listen to anything he has to say regarding the politics of this country, but last night, he surprised me…just watch

While I agree that there are many broken families in the black community, Juan must be living in a bubble because there are also many many many functional, happy middle class black families that are whole and intact. Juan Williams is among that middle class. I am heartened by the fact that he recognized the historical significance of Michelle and the speech she gave last night at the Democratic National Convention. She’s a women, mom, sister, daughter and wife. Whether you agree with their politics or not, there can be no mistake that Barack and Michelle have created the quintessential American Family and I am so proud of them as parents, human beings, Americans specifically and African Americans in particular.

As always, be well
