Martin Luther King, Jr.

MLK Day thread

There will be and have been a lot of reflections on Dr. King's life today and this weekend. In recent years, I've taken this opportunity to reflect on his wife, Coretta, as I will do again here.

Rev. Dr. Joseph Lowery at Coretta's funeral a few years ago sums it up well. Watch the whole video, it's worth it.

Be sure to check in at about 1:05 through 2:00.

But in the morning,will words become deeds that meet needs?

MLK Day thread

My recent reflections on Dr. King's life center more around his wife, Coretta, as her death just happened in the past few years. Rev. Dr. Joseph Lowery at her funeral sums up what I think the reflection on either or both of their lives should be about. Well, at least what I'm feeling today. Watch the whole video, it's worth it.
