Reading, Writing and Obama

“At a time,” he says, “when so much of our politics is trying to manage this clash of cultures brought about by globalization and technology and migration, the role of stories to unify — as opposed to divide, to engage rather than to marginalize — is more important than ever.”

President Barack Obama in a wonderful story about Obama as reader and writer by Michiko Kakutani in the New York Times.  Yet another reason we're really really going to miss President Obama.

In addition to the article, there's the verbatim interview, with even more neat reading and writing stuff.
