note to corporate media wind bags, Martin Luther King day is not a holiday 'for black people'

[G_j]

Martin Luther King day is not a holiday simply 'for black people'. It is a holiday to honor the memory of a truly great humanitarian leader who fought for the rights of all people and who struggled with every fiber of his being to make this a better country for everyone, and beyond that, a better world for everyone.

2. Lots of Americans never miss a chance to miss a chance

to improve their understanding of this country. Their never-ending loss. Ours, too, unfortunately, because Dr. King patiently and bravely spelled out real American history for years, its dreadful realities and its potential remedies. He was the greatest American of my lifetime. By far.
