Yesterday, President Obama dedicated the dramatic 30-foot high Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial emerging out of granite, and that moment of unveiling was a grand indicator of how far we’ve come in a short time and oh how so much much farther we have to travel together.
Today we celebrate the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.
He was a man that saw a mountain and climbed it.
He was a man that found the mountaintop and touched it.
He was the creator of a light that lives beyond the common man and lights the valley of our ways.
When most people think of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.‘s famous “I Have a Dream” speech, they hearken back to the steps of the Lincoln Memorial on August 28, 1963 where 200,000 people watched and listened.
