[QUOTE="tieguy, post: 156362, member: 1912"] [COLOR=navy]Lincoln and kennedy are an example of whites who helped. MLK is another example of a great black leader who also tried to help resolve this injustice. Recognizing this point and celebrating his accomplishments helps us move towards his vision of a color blind society. You can't let a Jesse Jackson or Al sharpton deter us from the point that MLK preached a non-violent approach to resolving oppression when his people were being lynched for speaking out. You can't deny that MLK died fighting for his beliefs. While you can deny any responsibility for past injustice you can speak up loudly against any future injustices by loudly and proudly celebrating MLK. He sacrificed for the cause of humanity. Please don't try to deny him or short change his legacy. Give the man his dues. [/COLOR] [COLOR=navy][/COLOR] [/QUOTE]
