I'm Oprah Winfrey. Welcome to Super Soul Conversations, the podcast. I believe that one of

the most valuable gifts you can give yourself is time, taking time to be more fully present.

Your journey to become more inspired and connected to the deeper world around us starts right

now.

Hi to everybody watching and listening on Super Soul Sunday with the election just a couple

of days away.

I know that so many of you may be at this point tired of politics or the negative ad campaigns

in the constant news cycle about our divided country.

I like to think of Super Soul as a space where we can take a breath and where we can slow

down, center ourselves and focus on what really matters.

Now, what's most important to me is that as American citizens, we exercise our sacred privilege,

our right to vote because there are millions of people who came before us and who are living

now around the world who didn't and don't have that same right.

It is my forvent desire that we do not take the vote for granted.

And I want to show you a clip from the Oprah show back in 1988, I think, where I explained

over 32 years ago the reason why I always vote.

I've been telling the story for years, if you haven't heard it, here it is.

I'll start with Norma and Mia.

I'm trying to remain totally unbiased during this show.

But I will start with you all because, as black people in this country, I just find it difficult

to believe that you're not going to vote for somebody since so many of our people died

for the right to vote.
