Martin Luther King, Jr., "What Is Your Life's Blueprint?"

If you don't know. It was in 2014-2015 that all the speech's of Dr. King were suddenly released from many arenas. The King family had them locked away for a long time. They I am told by my father who was in Selma with King and John Lewis and worked with Corretta Scott King he said, "That the family wasn't ready to let them be public." 50 years is when something becomes history is what I was told long ago by a history professor as a young man. I am 52 and as a boy every year the "I have a Dream" speech would be released on TV in part. It was appointment TV back then; everyone all watching at the same time. We would have a film in school often that would speak about the 'March on Washington" and every kid and every adult knew the words, "I have a dream." and what it meant. I had a poster in my room as a young man with those words printed on it with a picture of Dr. King. I would really like to have you think if you are younger than I and even more so if you are 30 or below what it means that you have Dr. King right here at your finger tips able to watch. listen, and even read his notes in videos. We did not have that when I was a boy, a young man or even in my 30's. We had books yes, but to listen to what he said back then is amazing. "The moral leader' of a generation he was called by millions, by almost the whole nation back then, and we do not have his rival or his like with us today. I don't think that is a bad thing; for, new generations and new leaders are being born everyday helping us to the goal of, "We just want you to be true to what you put down on paper." MLK. I am writing this now; for, the capital was attacked this week and the congress and senate had their "Bloody Sunday' of Selma. It is up to us to come together like a whole nation the first time the White Christians, and other faiths joined with the Blacks at the March in Selma and change everything. Thank you Rodges Lawton for up loading this piece of history for all people of the world to listen to and find their 'Life's Blue Print' God Bless. THOR
