For a King, celebrate...
Since Monday is the day we celebrate a man of vision and strength who worked with others so that this country might live up to its promise of freedom and justice for all, I thought it would be cool to see this old video celebrating the man and his legacy. Let's all take some time on Monday to think about how we can continue to make "The Dream" a reality.
Much love and peace,

Being a Trekkie, I always think of Dr. King's advice to Nichelle Nichols who portrayed Uhura on the original Star Trek. She wanted to quit the show because she didn't get to do much. He told her she couldn't because her just being there represented an optimistic future in which race would no longer be an issue. She took his advice. Whoopi Goldberg and Mae Jemison were inspired to greatness by her. The next Star Trek series, Next Generation, had two African Americans and three women in the regular cast.
I'm planning blog entries on Nichelle Nichols and Majel Barret in the future, by the way.
