You know what makes me sad? On the 45th anniversary of his historic speech,
we are seeing history being made all over again and all MLK Jr's surviving children can do is take each other to court over money.

*sigh*

*double sigh*

1. I guess the consolation is that the civil trial indicates King was the victim of a conspiracy.
And not that of a "lone gunman."

2. I think the spirit of MLK is overjoyed at the prospect of our first
AA presidential candidate. Hell, I mean, first AA president.

3. Did you see one of the vents in the AJC last week
I cringed! It said that perhaps the dream has been reached because they aren't being judged anymore by the color of their skin, but the content of their character.

It's a sad day for the King family and our city. That Center is more important than any of them alone. *sigh* me too *sigh*
