What's the difference between MLK and Barack Obama?
One was a great American who fought for rights for all citizens, the other fights to restrict and restrain the rights we have fought so passionately to obtain.
I once heard an interview on NPR with a man who worked with MLK. It was at an NAACP convention. They asked him what MLK would have said had he been there.
The gentleman said that he would have addressed the audience, dressed in their finest clothes, suits and dresses, and asked them all how they could come in the building to talk about improving humanity when they walked right past the homeless hungry man sitting at the base of a pillar in front of the building, without giving him a thought or a moment of their time.
Thank you for your contributions to humanity, Martin Luther King Jr. Today is your day.
