This thread is started in utter solidarity of ALL folk. This has nothing to do with racism or race riots or race wars, but the neccessity of human solidarity for our SURVIVAL and for the civility of American society to endure.
Today is the anniversary of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s passing. It is not a controversy but he is a political figure. Some might say a political spiritual figure. And I agree. I post this in his memory, that others may chime in with quotes and civil comments.
"Like an unchecked cancer, hate corrodes the personality and eats away its vital unity. Hate destroys a man's sense of values and his objectivity. It causes him to describe the beautiful as ugly and the ugly as beautiful, and to confuse the true with the false and the false with the true."
-Martin Luther King, Jr., Strength To Love, 1963.
