Dreaming a New America

Hey, its Amber again! Yesterday, I went to an AMAZING presentation at the President's Dining Hall, in the Campus Center, where there was a guest speaker name Dr. Vincent Harding, who was a civil rights leader, and speech writer for Martin Luther King. He is 79 years old, but doesn't look it. There were at lot of people there, and it was really fun, and I learn a lot about people. It was more of a conversation, than a speech. He asked questions about where every body's grandmother was from, and he talk about how young people nowadays have to step up and take leadership. He said that now, especially, is the time for women to step up, and take power.  I already knew that Pine Manor was a diverse school, but hearing from people's different backgrounds, reminded me again about how diverse our school is. I had to wait for around 45 minutes for an autograph and picture, but it was worth it.

Cheese!
