Our nation was founded on a bedrock principle that we are all created equal. The project of each generation is to bridge the meaning of those founding words with the realities of changing times — a never-ending quest to ensure those words ring true for every single American.

And then sometimes, there are days like this when that slow, steady effort is rewarded with justice that arrives like a thunderbolt.
