Martin Luther King Jr.

Tweet This


Thank goodness Martin Luther King, one of the great violet leaders of our time, was courageous enough to share his vision with the world.

I'm sure he is proud the good ole U.S. of A. elected an African American president. Yet, I believe he knows our journey of providing equal rights to all citizens of the United States is incomplete.

I have a dream one day all Americans will be granted the right to marry, and treated as the first class citizens, they are. And we shouldn't be satisfied until All citizens of this great nation are treated with respect and dignity.

Martin Luther King Jr:
And when this happens, when we allow freedom ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual:

Free at last! Free at last!

Thank God Almighty, we are free at last!
