At my last Black History Month celebration at the White House, we had folks of all ages come together to celebrate—including Clark Reynolds. I hope we'll continue to build a brighter future for young people like him. pic.twitter.com/H9NagqrqmW
"I could not ask for a better life partner and in my humble opinion, America could not have asked for a better First Lady.” —@BarackObama on @MichelleObama
Jacob Philadelphia was five years old when he visited the Oval Office and asked if his hair was like mine. That photo became one of our favorites – a reminder of the power of seeing yourself in your leaders.
Decades before our family lived there, First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt planted a Victory Garden on the White House lawn—and I'm thrilled to share that the Fruit & Vegetable Garden at the Obama Presidential Center will be named in her honor. I can’t wait for you all to visit! pic.twitter.com/wAMwaAHn18
From an early age, my mom, Marian Robinson, taught me how to think for myself, use my own voice, and understand my own worth.

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
With the King family marching today, we remember that the fight for voting rights takes perseverance. As Dr. King said, “There are no broad highways to lead us easily and inevitably to quick solutions. We must keep going.” May we honor his memory through action forged in faith. pic.twitter.com/Qn1q4EvXN5
Through his groundbreaking roles and singular talent, Sidney Poitier epitomized dignity and grace, revealing the power of movies to bring us closer together. He also opened doors for a generation of actors. Michelle and I send our love to his family and legion of fans. pic.twitter.com/zkYKFSxfKA
In 2011, my Administration made a pledge to prepare 100,000 new STEM teachers over the next 10 years. I couldn't be prouder to hear that @100Kin10 not only met that goal, but trained an additional 8,000 teachers who will make a difference for our kids. https://t.co/NI2J779IYSpic.twitter.com/uLqbuRjEeF
