You are a true Hero in my eyes. Thanks For My Freedom!

"When we let freedom ring, when we let it ring from every tenement and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old spiritual, 'Free at last, free at last. Thank God Almighty, we are free at last."
~Martin Luther King, Jr., "I Have a Dream"

hoping his dream comes true

Hope many more are pondering the man and his accomplishments today.

«I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal.» ~Martin Luther King, Jr

More black men are in jail today than were in slavery in 1850.

"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."

Makes you think about all he and civil rights protesters fought for and how it is today #occupy

His dream needs to be everyone's dream so that we can make reality!

Sleeping in, television marathons and furniture sales: it begins to absorb the anonymity that eventually adheres to all American holidays...the acquired apathy of the entitled generation. Inevitable, I suppose, but still a shame.

A time comes when silence is betrayal.
