A better question would be: What was good?

What was good? How about his belief that a black man should be entitled to the same rights as a white man? That he should be able to vote and to attend the same state funded universities as a white man. That he shouldn't be denied a place at a lunch counter or a seat on a bus merely because of his color. That he should be free to advance as far as his abilities could take him without being hampered by his color. I think all those things are good things. Don't you?

"I think all those things are good things. Don't you?"

I certainly do and I'm glad that the Founding Fathers gave them to us all. Further more, I'm grateful for our Republican form of governance that eventually triumphed in the application of that ideal for all.

I'm sorry, what was it that you think MLK did for America?
