It appears that those in power have taken very well to the sound advice that Martin Luther King enlightened them with. How has this been working for us so far??? #LoveIsAHelluvaDrug ========== We must say to our white brothers all over the South who will try to keep us down, We will match your capacity to inflict suffering with our capacity to endure suffering. We will meet your physical force with soul force. We will not hate you, and yet we cannot in our good conscience obey your evil laws. Do to us what you will, threaten our children, and we will still love you. Come into our homes at the midnight hours of life and take us out on some desolate highway and beat us and leave us there, and we will still love you. Run all around the continent, send your literature and say that we arent worthy of integration, that we are too immoral, that we are too low, that we are too degraded, and yet we will still love you. Bomb our homes and go by our churches early in the morning and bomb them, if you please, and we will still love you. But we will wear you down by our capacity to suffer. In winning the victory, we will not only win our freedom, we will so appeal to your heart and your conscience that we will win you in the process. ~ Martin Luther The King He also said This is the first time in the history of our struggle that we have been able, LITERALLY to fill the jails. In a real sense, this is the FULLFILLMENT OF A DREAM. If we could fill the jails, in our witness to freedom, it would be a MAGNIFICENT EXPRESSION OF THE DETERMINATION OF THE NEGRO. ~ Martin Luther King Well... its 2015 and Black Men have most definitly filled the jails... so much so...that they tear down local schools...erect shopping centers... and build more prisons for us to fill. Thanks Martin Luther King... this magnificent DREAM has given us more FREEDOM than we can shake a stick at. #Salute #BadLogic
