IN HONOR OF DR. MARTIN LUTHER KING, JR.

Dr. King

Civil Rights pioneer Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would have celebrated his 80th birthday last Thursday, and how happy would he be to see the nation’s first African American president, Barack Obama, take office tomorrow at noon.

If you are looking for a good way to commemorate the life and legacy of Dr. King, you’re encouraged to watch CNN’s special, From MLK to Today, which is airing right now on the network and will end at 3 p.m. C.S.T.

Dr. King’s entire “I Have A Dream” speech will be broadcast during the special. I know I’ll be watching.

Also, Obama has called for a “national day of service” today. I know most of you are off work or out of school, so why not take some of your free time and give back to the community. Your community will be grateful for it.

    I think he’d be overjoyed that his hardwork paid off. As a matter of fact, I think he’s up there watching it all unfold and saying “well done, you make me proud”
