Today we celebrate the birth of Martin Luther King Jr., a man who withstood diversity and hoped for change in a time when change felt impossible. His courage and ambition began a change that over 70 years later, still remains.
The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy.
-Martin Luther King Jr., Strength to Love, 1963

“I Had a Dream” is one of the greatest American speeches of all time. Few speeches have articulated such a positive message so concisely, during a period of time when African American persecution was so great. The right wing American media always marginalizes his message by saying he was an adulterer, and I’m not defending that part of his life, but you don’t always throw out the baby with the bath water. Perhaps he was flawed, but he was also a great leader, and one we really could use now…

and penis size…you can measure a man that way…
Yeah, the toilet paper roll measurement. If it fits inside with a little wiggle room: you average, if it fits inside with a lot of wiggle worm, you short-short man, and if it doen’t fir inside….well you know the rest!
Never heard of that one. Geez, who would think of that? Some guy to broke to buy a ruler I guess…
I saw it on tv, some talk show……I can’t remember now. Wow, just google penis measurement and toilet paper roll.
We have come so far as a society, but we still have so far to go.
Wow, and if only he were alive today, maybe there wouldn’t be any racism in our country. I can only imagine the changes he would have brought.
Thanks. Great blog post!

Life is either a daring adventure or nothing. To keep our faces toward change and behave like free spirits in the presence of fate is strength undefeatable.
