40 Year Fridays

Happy Friday to everyone, not much happening, so this one will be short. Today marks the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King Jr. It gives an opportunity to examine our race relations here and abroad. We (the US) has come a long ways, but still have a long ways to go. We have our first African American running for president, but we have also seen an upswing in violence and rhetoric from the likes of the KKK and Aryan nation. Room for improvement, yes, but progress has occurred, let us celebrate MLK legacy and continue to work towards a more perfect nation! Have a great weekend...Cheers!
