MLK JR. Day

We are observing Martin Luther King Jr. Day here in the US. I hope people take a minute to think about the man and what the day is about. It's not just about a national holiday.

I grew up in Memphis and was a witness to much of what is spoken of today. I remember the marches, the strikes and the riots. I also remember the day that he was assassinated at the Lorraine Motel in downtown Memphis.

He was a great man that was taken too young but his words live on....remember him today.
