On this day I have a birthday with a very special American, Martin Luther King, which I’ve shared for 76 years. In remembrance, I share an excellent article written by a former journalist and posted on his blog, Kiko’s House — “If Dr. King Looked Beyond The Grave Today, He Would Be Bitterly Disappointed.”
In the End,
we will remember not the words of our enemies,
but the silence of our friends.
— Martin Luther King, Jr.
