Forty years ago a man who has reached majestic heights for the black community was assassinated. Baptist minister Martin Luther King Jr. stood for change, equality, and love for all people regardless of race. With every word Dr. King spoke he hoped and prayed that a better tomorrow would be attainable. Dr. King worked vigorously, engulfing his mind with a method to ensure a positive fight against segregation, discrimination, and disgusting prejudices that not only African Americans face, but all minorities even till this day. I will not let April 4th pass me by without reflecting on how truly amazing this man was. I am thankful not only for Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., but for the uprising of a race that was left languished in the pits of society.
Peace,
