“May I stress the need for courageous, intelligent, and dedicated leadership… Leaders of sound integrity. Leaders not in love with publicity, but in love with justice. Leaders not in love with money, but in love with humanity. Leaders who can subject their particular egos to the greatness of the cause.” ~ Martin Luther King, Jr.

Sigh. There is an effort by those in power to write Dr. King out of history.

We need a MLK for today. A solidarity movement to oppose what’s going on and to stop it.

My 14 year old granddaughter made a sign and walked in our MLK Day March with a classmate and her family on Monday. The first time I met the friend’s family, I was startled because the dad (who is a science teacher) has painted their entire garage door with a very recognizable portrait of Martin Luther King!
