Apparently someone found my column mildly moving...
Kimberly Faison writes in the Nov. 7 Independent Florida Alligator:
I am a black American woman, and I am so proud of the column Daniel Seco wrote about the experience he had on election night.
You really got a small glimpse into the heart of black Americans. We love our country and always have, but for the first time, we feel that our country loves us as well.
For me, this election means the distance between blacks and whites will be completely erased. It means that we will see one another only as Americans.

America has been blessed by God himself. Through all the suffering we all have had to endure (black or white) we have never given up. We were taught by our parents, grandparents and great–grandparents not to look back.
When you fall on your back, if you can look up, then you can get up. May God continue to bless you, Daniel Seco.
