Growing up here in Atlanta from 1959 till now has had it very special moments and Dr. King was one of those moments, Dr. King was strong, firey, brillant, relentless, persistant, and filled with the Almighty Strength of God, makes me very grateful that I personally had the opportunity to see ,feel ,and try to live my life with this ideology.
The struggle of Dr. King was a struggle for the whole world, not just here in the U.S., it was stressed for all of us to treat all our brothers and sisters with love and respect for each other and all of our life struggles which comes in waves throughtout life itself for all. The struggles of today's society is in need of Dr. King's ideology, which is ulitmately God's point and view and hopes for us all.
Look at what is happening everywhere throughout the planet, China, Iraq, Africa, relentless abuses against human and civil rights, all everyone does is talk about it, with great speeches but no action, here at home and aboard, and when and if we do intersede it is always about how much money we are losing or gaining, sad as it is, there is no cursade anymore for us, it is only them that rule and absorb it all from the people of the world.
Mr. Obama made a very elaquent speech yesterday on the anivisary date of Dr. Kings death, but left out some truths about how we live this ideology of Dr. King's to todays life, so I would like to comment on some of the excerps: Yes Martin Luther saw the Promised Land in his vision, but it is not here in the U.S. any longer, for the mountain top belongs to God Almighty ,and without God's help all of us as a Country will never reach the Promise Land of equality of human rights or justice for all, for human rights ,justice and freedom is the center of God himself and very few are blessed like Martin Luther to speak it and live it , for talk is cheap. If you ever read some of the forefathers documents of the early days of our country, you see a relentless call on God himself. Mr. Obama says in his speech, that we are each others keepers and that we can stand up together ,or we can go down together, it is evident to me that the common man here in the U.S. has no say anymore, and our leaders have forgotten everything when it comes to economic justice and what it really is,and what fair treatment of civil issues really are. We as Americans, civilians and veterans alike are trapped in and denied the wages and benefits of our labor, some opportunity is opened to minimum wages for some, but not for others, good exsample Louisana Hurricanes, wages of nationally spread resturant industry $2.13 an hour, WOW.
In closing of this statement, the dream Martin Luther spoke of still remains incomplete for many, whether you are black or white, red or yellow. So let it be said that alot of us throughout time have remained vilgilant to the cause ,and we are wanting our nation's leaders to have a conscience and reread our forefathers ideology , and to hear what the people are saying in all matters and to stop the silence on their mountain in D.C.
Sincerly felt
thanks for the right of freedom of speech,
