Remembering MLK today and the progressive impact he and the movement he championed had on our country.

"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter." - Martin Luther King Jr.

Alabama and Mississippi are the only 2 states left that still tie the celebration of Robert E. Lee's birthday to MLK Day. Mississippi is making plans to separate the 2... Alabama has no such plans.

One of my favorites from his letter from the Birmingham Jail.

"We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny. Whatever affects one directly, affects all indirectly."
~Martin Luther King Jr.

This?

I don’t know anybody who cares about Robert E Lee day or even mentions it. So if you hadn’t brought it up I wouldn’t even thought of it.
