If you haven't seen Dr. MLK's "I have a dream" speech today,

from 50 years ago, please do yourself a favor. So much still applies.
I am so glad Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., was honored today. Great kudos!

And some gossip I heard; JFK almost shut this down because he was afraid it would get out of control. He was proved way wrong.
