Mike and I walked CarolinaFest, went to the Harvey Gantt Museum and then I went off to work the Echo Foundation at the Knight Theater. General Walker Casey spoke and charged us with the task of coming together to work for the country. Kathy Kennedy Townsend supported his words.
The stars of the night , though, were the Echo Youth Ambassadors, a range of high school students. They work for the future, their future, and give their time with the echoing idea that politics and one's civic duties is a right given upon the people of this nation at birth. Not 16 with the right to drive, 18 with the right to vote, or 21 with the right to drink, but the moment we take our first breath of air.
