“Early morning, April 4, Shot rings out in the Memphis sky. Free at last they took your life, but they could not take your pride.” -U2
I thought it was quite aprapoe for me to write on the birth day of one of the greatest leaders to walk this planet, hands down the greatest orator in the english language. And most importantly a man who dared to dream of things that never were. A man who dreamed in the darkness of night just to bring to the light a new dream, one that seemed impossible… One where little black boys and black girls could play in the streets together with white boys and white girls….
Well folks, although the dream has not fully unfolded, MLK’s dream did come true. He created the impossible. And did it with will, vision, strength, love, and peace. He is and eternally will be a guiding light and blue print for all of us to bring crazy, wild, impossible dreams into reality.
Thank you Drum Major your war cry is heard and rings throughout enternity for peace and good will for all men and woman.
“So yes, the dream has been shattered, (Amen) and I have had my nightmarish experiences, but I tell you this morning once more that I haven’t lost the faith. (No, sir) I still have a dream (A dream, Yes, sir) that one day all of God’s children will have food and clothing and material well-being for their bodies, culture and education for their minds, and freedom for their spirits. “coretta-kissing-king.jpgcoretta-kissing-king.jpg
