Day 284- January 18th--I have a Dream

In Honor of the Martin Luther King, Junior holiday I listened to a CD of Martin Luther King Jr's Speeches. The one thing a lot of people do not know about him is that towards the end of his life he was working more for Social Justice issues including the wages of sanitation workers who were working 60 hours a week and were still at the poverty line.

It's funny...LAST year on ML King day I read his "I had a dream" speech for my new activity.

I didn't know till then how controversial he was towards the end of his life.
