Dr. Martin Luther King Jr, 50th Anniversary March On Washington.

Because He Cared, I Am Able To Be Hopeful.

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. is a man I have learned about all my life. I've observed his infamous "I Have A Dream" speech since I was in grade school. He has without doubt touched my life in a delightful way.  Dr. King was the motivation behind why I took a class in African American Studies when I was in college. He is one of my favorite civil rights leaders. Because of his dream, I am able to dream. I am able to do my best at whatever I set my mind to accomplish. I am able today to be proud of my heritage in spite of the negative views relating to African Americans today. I am very grateful for the changes that has come & am hopeful for more changes to come to pass.

I really wish Dr. King was alive today to see the fantastic impact he has made on the world. It is a shame to have pored your whole heart/soul into a cause & not see the benefits of the seeds you have sown. May freedom continue to ring. Happy 50th Anniversary on the March On Washington Dr. Martin Luther King.
