MLK in my heart

I'd like somebody to mention that day that Martin Luther King, Jr., tried to give his life serving others. I'd like for somebody to say that day that Martin Luther King, Jr., tried to love somebody. I want you to say that day that I tried to be right on the war question.
I want you to be able to say that day that I did try to feed the hungry. And I want you to be able to say that day that I did try

in my life to clothe those who were naked. I want you to say on that day that I did try in my life to visit those who were in prison. I want you to say that I tried to love and serve humanity.

Yes, if you want to say that I was a drum major, say that I was

a drum major for justice. Say that I was a drum major for peace. I was a drum major for righteousness. And all of the other shallow things will not matter.

- Martin Luther King -
from “The Drum Major Instinct”

today marks the 40th anniversary of Martin Luther King's assassination .... He lives in our hearts Forever !!!

Bom dia Luisa.
A beautiful voice was silenced, but The Dream still lives. The world should be very grateful that beautiful voices like yours continue to call for peace, and justice, and freedom. Obrigado.
