The Legacy Of Martin Luther King Must Be More Than A Parade...

The praise piled upon the Reverend Martin Luther King, Jr. over the past few days is a fitting tribute to a job well-done for providing equal justice and full citizenship under the Constitution for all Americans.
Reverend Martin Luther King gave his life for a cause which was very important to him and countless Americans. Bringing all Americans into the main stream of our society, offering a chance at a free education and equal work place opportunities resulted in a huge life change for African Americans and others.
Many Americans have taken advantage of the changes brought about by the efforts of Reverend King. Sadly, many have not. Reverend King would be much more impressed with those who get an education and become productive Americans rather than remaining counter-productive. Holidays, speeches, parades, and other acts of respect are appropriate, but seeing the lifestyle change is by far the most rewarding aspect of Dr. King’s lifetime work.
Please read the book “Uncle Sam’s Plantation” written by Star Parker, an African American young lady, who asks Americans to realize the dream offered by Dr. King. (www.unclesamsplantation.com)
