MLK... funny. A holiday and every city in the US has a street name MLK something. Yet, how many citizens actually drive on that MLK road/street/avenue/boulevard/hiway in a given lifetime. Do you know where MLK is in your town?
Actually yes. It's just about a fact that every MLK street has been in a black neighborhood.
the MLK and columbus holidays are a total joke. one discovered something that was already here, and the other one is nothing but a sound byte from a pretty lame speech. the feds don't need another excuse for a day off.

speak your mind and tell me how I am wrong. MLK did about 1/8th of what people like rosa parks, frederick douglass, and george washington carver did for black people. he is popular because we have a soundbyte of his speech. if you think otherwise, oh well.

You're not serious? JFK was great but he was no MLK...Go rent a little documentary called "eyes on the prize".
Oh my goodness, and was the miniseries Roots also about John McCain? lol
