Every year on this date, as we just did a moment ago, I have my children watch some clips from Martin Luther King, Jr. I explain the context of his words to the best of my ability to convey and theirs to understand; interestingly, a discussion that evolves along with their comprehension abilities. My oldest now asks intriguing questions; my youngest still entranced by the power of his magical cadence. But I know even for my little boy, those words will ring in his mind for years to come, jus as they always have in mine.
A man that used non-violent civil disobedience to seek justice for his fellow men, instead of power over them.
Don't think he was gonna be happy with those who seek the power to control the words their fellow men can use. Nah.
Freaking Twilight Zone, man!
