RIP Martin Luther King Jr.

April 4th, 2011 marks the 43rd anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. I don't think anything needs to be said here to express the importance of this man and how much he did for this country as a whole.


Darkness cannot drive out darkness; only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that. Hate multiplies hate, violence multiplies violence, and toughness multiplies toughness in a descending spiral of destruction ... The chain reaction of evil -- hate begetting hate, wars producing more wars -- must be broken, or we shall be plunged into the dark abyss of annihilation. -Strength to Love, 1963


You can never go wrong by taking a few minutes out of your day to listen to one of the best speeches in American history.
