Inauguration of Mayor Yolanda Ford

I am very thankful to Mayor Yolanda Ford for the honor to perform for her inauguration. This was truly an historic event. Fort Bend ISD Board of Trustees member Jim Rice summed it up nicely. I will paraphrase:

Here we are for the Inauguration of the first female, Afro-American Mayor of Missouri City, TX, taking place during Black History Month at Thurgood Marshall High School - a school named in honor of the first Afro-American to hold a seat on the highest court in the land - Associate Justice of the Supreme Court.
