NNPA NEWSWIRE — “Today we honor one of the world’s most impassioned freedom fighters and ‘drum majors for justice’: Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. With his powerful, dignified, and transformative leadership of the Civil Rights Movement, his soul-stirring sermons and speeches, and his prophetic ‘dream’ of a day when men and women would ‘not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character,’ Dr. King made the ultimate sacrifice in order to force America to live up to its promise of equality and justice for all.
