Taken aback, to the turning point of America.
MLK’s near assassination transformsinto a life-long legacy
by Scott Thayres
“Dear Lord, I thank you myHoly Savior for my second chance atlife. I know by your gracious hand that Iam still here today Lord. May your HolySpirit keep me at peace for myremainder of time so that I may do whatyou have kept me here to do. Amen.Today, as I stood at the podium, mythoughts have swayed. I was notthinking about the past, nor the present, but the future. I have much more to doand preach to all my brethren of allcolors.I have a dream. Youhave a dream. Together, wehave the American Dream.America has a dream,that one day, the impecunious,the homeless, the unfortunateand the fortunate willexperience a reverse.America has a dream that allin the richness of Hollywood from theslums of Harlem will come together in asocial conversation, a socialconversation of not just equality of race, but of economic standards.America has a dream that oneday, jealousy and thievery will be tamed by the hopes and dreams of the lesser.That greed and financial superiority arecrushed by the people for the people.America has a dream thatschools will overflow with children andstreets will shout and scream inhappiness of each new day: “This is thePoor People’s Campaign!”America has a dream!When the sounds echoingthrough the streets have ceased, the criesof weeping willows evolve into cries of new beginnings, the muggings andslums transform into combined handsand peaceful neighborhoods. This is nota socialistic view, but a view for allsides of this nation. We are dreamingAmerica and with our believes withheart and our hands joined, we canmake this country into equality.”
This is but a piece of MartinLuther King Jr.’s second speech thataided in the reality of America today. With his firm grip on beliefs pertaining toequality of men and money, he is but acut of the crop in American History.
Martin Luther King Jr. gives his first moving and very effective speech on desegregation and racismin “I Have A Dream” speech.
What If,
MLK did leave hiswork un-finished?
By Scott Thayres
It begs and persuades to have thethought come across your mind leavingyou stumped or awed, possibly a chuckleor two. I was thinking on the side of Socio-Democracy never rearing it’s headas high as it did. So what could havehappened? Well, for starters, the bulletdid more then just graze MLK’s head.With the tragic loss, America filled upwith anger and sorrow. In Chicago,Baltimore and Washington D.C. therewould be a mass outbreak of riots thatwould take days to restore back to order.Riots, riots and more riots. Then JFK would give a speech in honor of hisdeath.Hey, it didn’t happen. It’s to un-realistic that it deserves a laugh. Howcould this ever happen, really?
