Happy Martin Luther King Jr., Day

Before the "dream," there was Oklahoma City | News OK

That was such a crazy time when we lost MLK. Two months later, we lost RFK, only five years after President Kennedy. The Chicago riots. 1968 was tumultuous. MLK's message was one that was admirable in the face of so many troubles in the black community and is especially admirable when compared to some others in the civil rights movement who mocked his peaceful approach.
