I've been celebrating Dr. King's birthday since as long as I can remember. On our street in S. Los Angeles, we always had a block party with pot luck, dancing, and yes, drinking by adults. It was a celebration to beat all celebrations.
Look at the people at that famous speech:
I admit that I have lived in his shadow so to speak and not making the waves I could have and should have. And by doing so the country has slipped. We must work together to bring back the morals and dignity and stand up for and make the changes that all of us can live with equality and justice.
Friends were motivated by Dr. King's speech almost a decade previously when students across the country protested the Vietnam war. My friend was with 10,000 others at her university marching on the federal buildings when they were tear gassed protesting the Kent University shootings.
"Four Kent State University students were killed and nine were injured on May 4, 1970, when members of the Ohio National Guard opened fire on a crowd gathered to protest the Vietnam War."
