People forget that Dr. King’s real life was filled with threats, violence & injuries, not speeches and “dreams.”

Dr. King would’ve been 88 this past Friday.

“ When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people, the giant triplets of #racism , materialism, & militarism are incapable of being conquered.”

    The civil rights movement never ends, and fighting for civil rights never should’ve ended. It’s required to keep trying to be civilized people, that’s how civilization continues, if you don’t care about civilization and don’t want to have civilization anymore, you can just get a whole bunch of people to stop caring about promoting civil rights, like we have over the last few decades, and this is what civilization failing worldwide looks like.
