(TriceEdneyWire.com) – For those who rejoiced when Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. died, they must be disappointed to know that we still celebrate the work King did to make this a better world. Some thought that killing the Dreamer would kill his dream of a better world for all of us. I’ll be the first to admit we still have a long way to go to realize his dream, but for those who loved and admired him, we’re still on the battlefield to make this a better world.
Every year on Jan. 15, people brave the ice, wind and snow to hear somebody talk about this man all over the world. It’s funny that King was a paper boy when he was a child and at that time, he wanted to be a fireman. In his young life, he knew that Black people and White people did not have the same rights.
