Joseline Hernandez Prays For The President ‘To Soften Up His Heart’
Joseline Hernandez recently sent out an encouraging message to protesters.
“I wanted to send everybody out there love and positivity. I’ve been doing a lot of praying. I’ve been praying for the United States of America, the whole wide world. The president to soften up his heart,” she said.
“That’s daily routine every day. To pray for all the protesters. To pray for all the people that’s out there fighting the everyday fight to make things change for all black children, for all the black community, the Hispanic community that are like myself, Afro Latinos.”
“We love you guys stay safe out there. Just keep the prayers up. Just keep the prayers up, alright,” Hernandez concluded.
As we previously reported, Barack Obama also recently had an encouraging message for protesters as well. “I’m speaking directly to the young men and women of color in the country who has so eloquently described and have witnessed too much violence and too much death,” Obama said.
“Too often some of that violence has come from the folks who are supposed to be serving and protecting you. I want you to know that you matter. I want you to know that your lives matter. That your dreams matter.”

“I have my daughters, Sasha and Malia, and I look at my nephews and nieces. I see the limitless potential that deserves to flourish and thrive. You should be able to learn and make mistakes, and live and life of joy without having to worry about what’s going to happen when you walk to the store, go for a jog, are driving down the street, or looking at some birds in a park,” the former President of the United States continued.
“So I hope that you also feel hopeful even as you may feel angry because you have the power to make things better and you have helped to make the entire country feel as if this something that’s gotta change. You have communicated a sense of urgency that is as powerful and transformative as anything that I’ve seen in recent years.”
