This has been an extraordinary day. I just came from seeing Selma. Its unimaginable -- almost -- that the events depicted in the movie occurred within my lifetime. The experience of the film was framed by the experience of witnessing hundreds of gay and straight couples come together with thousands of supporters and friends -- truly every kind of person imaginable -- to celebrate love and liberty. This experience, too, had been unimaginable. Almost. Both experiences have held powerful resonances with me for today and looking ahead. Unimaginable. Almost.
