As the first family departed the White house today for 8 day
Africa tour, Sasha Obama, 12 was spotted subtly declaring her support for gay
marriage by carrying a tote with rainbow prints. (Tote is a global symbol of
gay pride).Although Malia was not seen to carry a tote,in 2012 Obama credited both
his daughters with his about turn on gay marriage saying they prompted a change
in perspective. Sasha's support comes as DOMA is struck down in Supreme Court
today. President Barrack Obama made his feeling about the striking down of DOMA
known when he tweeted (see tweet below)
In what has been tagged another historic moment, the First
family today embarked upon an eight-day trip to Africa. One of the missions is
to revive U.S. engagement with the continent, although that may be overshadowed
by the uncertain health of South Africa hero Nelson Mandela.
The Obamas will be visiting Tanzania, Senegal and South
Africa. Due to want of security, they may not be visiting Nigeria-Africa’s
giant nation.
