Is your dream for all peoples, or just your peoples?
The principles tragically fail, if these amazing MLK quotes are applied any other way than equally across all peoples – and that is the point.
“Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.”
“Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that.”
“The time is always right to do what is right.”
“In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends.”
“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.
“Life’s most persistent and urgent question is, ‘What are you doing for others?”
“We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools.”
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.”
….hard for me to pick a favorite.
Today, we remember and celebrate Dr King as the movement of equality still begs for the attention and support from all peoples.
“I have a dream…” – is your dream for all peoples, or just your peoples?
