Hi there,
We’ve had a busy start to March here at The Obama Foundation, and we want to make sure you’re in the loop.
From a moving interview commemorating the 60th anniversary of the March on Selma to an uplifting video feature about a girl-serving organization here in Chicago, we hope these stories give you inspiration and empower you to continue making a difference in the world around you.

Recognizing the 60th Anniversary of the March on Selma | |
10 years ago, White House photographer Lawrence Jackson traveled with President Obama to the 50th anniversary of the March on Selma and captured one of the most iconic photos of the entire administration.
Last week, in honor of the 60th anniversary, we caught up with Lawrence to learn more about his journey to the White House, his thoughts on that history-making day, and his reaction to being featured at the upcoming Obama Presidential Center.
Read the full interview with Lawrence Jackson and listen to some of his answers in his own words. | |
