President Obama gave a commencement speech today to HBCU grads, and in it he implored graduates to make allies with people of many communities and not to look out only for their own. He specifically mentioned "the rural poor" and "low income workers of every background," along with refugees, immigrants and the LGBT community. It's nice to see rural people remembered--and it's nice to see him still encouraging cross-race coalition building.
