Beautiful quote, thank you. For more of King’s inspirational words, you can download a free 2-page inspirational flyer about one of the most central of King’s legacies often lost in holiday remembrances – his stance against global poverty and his encouragement for all Americans to learn about and combat it:

Speaking up and sharing this hidden King legacy laid out in King’s own words spoken just 4 days before he was gunned down would certainly be an excellent way at both honoring King’s vision, and opening your eyes to the currently still dreadful state of humanity. Pass It On!
