MLK

I can't let this day go by without something to say on the day we remember the late Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  What an amazing message of hope that he gave.  The courage to stand up in the face of gross injustice and cry out for equality is truly inspiring.

I'll leave with some lyrics to a song by one of my favorite bands of all time:

"Did you hear the thunderous voice of Dr. King?
The Ghost of Hope still strikes its brilliant lightning!
Through the dark our hearts will scream
For a word we've only dreamed.
And the past it will decay, so sing goodbye to yesterday.

And I believe
That we will burn the starless night
The truth will ring through depths of twilight
Liberty, our hearts ignite
Let hope still ring through depths of twilight."

-"Through Depths of Twilight", Brave Saint Saturn
