40 years ago today Dr. King was assassinated.  In our high tech information age, I was struck by how little we have heard his voice since then.  It’s one thing to talk about him; it’s another to hear it in his own words.  That is an opportunity we have today, and I urge you to take some time today to listen to the man who has inspired so much in his life and his death.  Aside from his self sacrifice and potent words, I was most touched by the coverage from his funeral, when his voice is played overhead… 

King:  On Leading the Movement

King:  “I’m Black and I’m Proud!”

King:  Marching in Selma

King:  Nonviolence Theory, Weapon, Movement

King:  Church Bombing

King:  Memphis Garbage Strike

King:  “Vietnam…Evil War…”

King:  Nobel Peace Prize

King:  On Being Threatened

King:  “At My Funeral…”

King’s Last Days

King on Meet the Press

Who Killed King?  The BBC Reports

Ultimately it’s not about the holiday…it’s about everything that came before that.  It’s American history, but McCain didn’t think it was relevant. Typical.
