2 of 3 Obama was breaking barriers 25 years ago today



Obama has been the first black president of the Harvard Law Review and the United States as well. He was 28 when he became the first black person elected for the position of president of the review. In his 1990 interview he stated that he thought his election was a step in the right direction but also wanted to reassure that everything still wasnt ok for blacks. I think that goes right along with what people can say about him being the first black man in the oval office.
