As an African-American this was a moving and inspiration to the black people and our ancestors, to hear how Mr. Tommie was feeling at that moment he made that gesture was knowing all is possible if you just make the move yourself, and following in your own beliefs. My respects goes out to Mr. Tommie and every black person in America, peace and love to all!!!
