Freedom, human dignity and justice come from God.

They’re not given to us by the state but come from within.

And we’re asking to be judged our character and not by our appearance.

I think its a great speech that stands as a moving restatement of American ideals and a powerful appeal to human brotherhood.

Today, when we have the race merchants dividing us by race and color, its important to take note of what Dr. King for at the height of the civil rights movement.

We’re all Children Of God.

King didn’t achieve the power he did with “critical race theory” or ideas of historical dialectic or any other such nonsense.

He appealed to simple CHRISTIAN ETHICS. The logic and force was overwhelming.

it should be a lesson to any leader.

AMEN!

MLK the man was flawed, as all men are, but those words and the way that he delivered them will be remembered throughout history as the embodiement of the best human goals and ideals. Hearing it even today uplifts the soul.
