Recently on Twitter - MLK Musings

start at bottom of this post and read up to the top

MLK didn't protect home field advantage - hotel tapes sent to Correta to be released in 2027

MLK's best friend and confidant was Ralph Abernathy - any wonder why he was so successful - he had a friend named Ralph!

But then the Good Samaritan came by. And he reversed the question: "If I do not stop to help this man, what will happen to him?".

And so the first question that the Levite asked was, "If I stop to help this man, what will happen to me?"

'dear fellow clergymen' - although a prophet is not welcomed in his own home...they might be persuaded if the case is well articulated

king quotes bible, socrates, niebuhr, his son, acquinas, buber, tillich, bunyan and jefferson from a jail cell...beautiful mind!

when your first name becomes "nigger," your middle name becomes "boy"...--then you will understand why we find it difficult to wait.

now reading MLK letter from birmingham jail

'I accept this prize...22 million negroes still in battle for racial injustice'...used platform to keep spotlight on issue - not him! classy

now reading MLK Nobel Prize acceptance speech.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where...dreams are more powerful when you make them personal

Life on Purpose - what others are saying...

I received this link from someone on twitter today and found it very affirming to see others saying what I've been trying to say - and doing a better job at it! Consider: If enough people say the same thing at the same time...a chorus has more impact than a solo!
