Essay by: Joshua
Dr. Martin Luther King stated that he had a dream of whites and blacks holding hands. Because of this, my life was not so much changed but created!
I am a son of a black man, I am also a son of a white woman. We are able to be a family - a proud family - because of his works! Dr. King went about everything in the correct manner: Non-violence.
War has never and will never create peace, it only silences a group for a short amount of time. Dr. King knew this and tried to convey this to both whites and blacks. We don't need to share punches, but rather share knowledge of understanding!
This great country still has along way to go. If you don't believe this, just look at what happened with hurricane Katrina. Dr. Martin Luther King got issues on the right track though. To honor him and the entire human race, we must stay on this track. We must get past small differences. We must in some way or another get along. We must care!
I thank Dr. Martin Luther King and all those who worked on a similar path to bring not only blacks together, but everyone together as one race - the human race. I'm also thankful for your dream Dr. King. I'm thankful that you spoke about it and I'm thankful that it came true. I'm living proof!
God Bless.
