Every year in January we celebrate the life of assassinated civil rights leader Martin Luther King. He spoke of a country that did not see color or status. Tomorrow the United States of America, our country, will swear in a Black man as President. How impressive is this? The Untied States is only 12% Black. America voted on the qualities of the man and the content of his character, and not the color of his skin. It shows that we are on our way to fulfilling the dream that Dr. King spoke about. I am proud of my country, as you should be too.Monday, January 19, 2009
