Obama’s Friend Dies (R.I.P.)
Ann Nixon Cooper, the Atlanta based woman who gained national attention after President Obama mentioned her in his election speech, has died.
The 107-year-old garnered praise from The President as he noted that the same woman who was born when Black people and women didn’t have the right to vote, bore witness to the country electing its first Black president.
Cooper passed just weeks before her birthday on January 8 when she would have turned 108.
This is the portion of President Obama’s speech dedicated to Ann Nixon Cooper.
