Remembering :: Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
Today, the nation honors the memory of Rev.

Honored to have had Great Black Men from the Past Shape our Current Present Lives. This world would be a tough place for me and all these “Swaggerific’ Balla'” type young men if we had to endure the outward racial conditions our older generations dealt with in America. Thank You to All Who Fought for our Futures and I WILL Work Hard to Make my kids & Grandkids futures even Brighter than mines is.. #ThankYouGodBless
Well said.
A remarkable man whose life and deeds can not be summarized in words. I can’t wait to visit the memorial (with the revised quotation) in DC.
