Happy King Day!
Our recent visit to Atlanta, which included trips to Ebenezer Baptist, The King Memorial, the Center for Social Change, and the King Museum, really opened my eyes to everything the good Dr./Rev meant to this country. Before his efforts, my marriage would be illegal, and both my wife and I would be subject to severe penalty.
I urge all my readers to take some time today and learn a little more about this great man than you already knew. I thought I knew a lot before the Atlanta trip, but I learned so much more.

Right on Nixon-
One of my favorite King quotes is:
"We must learn to live together as brothers or perish together as fools."
-Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
Great advice for the times we are living in.
Dr. King was a great man who could have rallied blacks to rise up in violence, but instead encouraged passive resistance. He was a man who put his Christian beliefs into action. I admire him very much.
Alright Nixon. Where are you hiding?
