martin luther king jr.

It's been a long time since I listened to this. I can't even remember if I ever listened to the speech in it's entirety, but since this is a belated anniversary, I sat down and listened to the whole thing. This is clearly one of the greatest rhetoricians America has ever produced. Perhaps one of...

http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/glenn-becks-planned-rally-runs-trouble-civil-rights/story?id=11440553 Glenn Beck's planned rally runs into trouble with civil rights groups.

I don't know what to make out of this story. Supposedly MLK was killed by the US Government, according to a trial that took place in 1999: Another question the article raises is: Why didn't we hear about that trial in the media?

I wonder, if now were the man's time to shine... As many have said, in one way or another, the "I have a dream" speech was masterfully poignant. He could draw you in with personal charisma, even on old tape of an event. He could make you feel something when he spoke: the man knew a dramatic...

One was black and the other is white. Ron Paul looks at MLK as a hero and I'm sure if the good Dr. was still alive today he would look at and admire Ron Paul as a man for civil liberties and equal rights. And mentioning the newsletters will loudly show your ignorance.

This April marks both the 40th anniversary of the death of Martin Luther King and the 10th anniversary of the death of Dr. King’s assassin James Earl Ray. CNN tonight had a two hour special tonight about James Earl Ray and the MLK assassination. The last half hour dealt with, and dismissed...

Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence Sound eerily familiar? (Hint: Replace "Vietnam" with "Iraq" and "China" with "Iran") I call upon our heroes like Bill O'Reilly and Rush Limbaugh to tell Americans the truth that the Liberal media doesn't want you to hear!

I started a thread in the Forum Community to Honor Martin Luther King. It went over like a lead balloon and most of the responses simply questioned Kings importance. I was disapointed. I don't share a lot of King's politics but I personally believe he was one of the most important men of the...

Maybe one day we WILL be judged by the content of our character.

As most everyone knows, January 19th is Martin Luther King Day. Martin Luther King was a very great man, and in fact is one of my philisophical role models. First, the necessaries. Dr. King Jr. was born on January 15, 1929, in Atlanta. His father was a minister, of course, and he grew up...
