Dr King

Today is the official celebration of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr's birthday.  Friday was his actual birthday and today is the government holiday.  How fitting that the Federal holiday falls on the eve of the inauguration of the nation's first black President. Maybe we have overcome, maybe we haven't but either way, this is a step in the right direction. Racism, bigotry, and prejudice aren't dead, but we can certainly hope they're on their last legs.  It's about time.
