Michelle and I started the @ObamaFoundation's Futures Series to connect the young leaders of tomorrow with the trailblazers of today. It’s great to see the impact that it’s already having on students from the South Side. https://t.co/0Ga97LzU09

We have a responsibility to the young people of the neighborhood. That's why we launched our Futures Series at Hyde Park Academy, the high school that neighbors the future Obama Presidential Center, to expose students to careers they may not have been envisioning for themselves. pic.twitter.com/fyLYITWG7r

From an early age, my mom, Marian Robinson, taught me how to think for myself, use my own voice, and understand my own worth.

Ahead of #MothersDay, I’m proud to announce that the “Opening the White House” exhibit at the Obama Presidential Center will be named after her. 💕 pic.twitter.com/QDhSSRRet0
I couldn't be more grateful for all the love and support I’ve received from my mother-in-law, Marian Robinson, especially during those years in the White House when she was right by our side. We look forward to honoring her with this exhibit. https://t.co/MrHs8xslMy

One of the greatest honors of my life is being a proud Chicagoan—a daughter of the South Side. When it came time to decide where Barack and I would build the Obama Presidential Center, we knew it had to be in the place we call home. We can’t wait to see this project come to life. pic.twitter.com/JOC6Vcfeji
