Remembering MLK

Letter From a Birmingham Jail

Comment: These is no except of the letter - readers are encouraged to click through and read it in its entirety. I'm not old enough to remember much about Martin Luther King, but I am old enough to have a knowledge of the gross racial injustices on the black race. I witnessed first hand the "colored" rest rooms and the "colored" drinking fountains. I remember at a Junior High class end of year party that negros* were not permitted to attend a swim event. Reading MLK's Letter From a Birmingham Jail is an appropriate way to remember him this day! (* as they were then called!)
