Marian Wright Edelman: Whither America http://www.huffingtonpost.com/marian-wright-edelman/whither-america_b_8903148.html
What a great human being, whose heart and God, led him to protest about a great tragedy that had gone on too long, and caused thousands of injuries and deaths of entire families, children, men, and women. Though there are still ignorant Americans who still think the blacks don't belong here, Martin L. King Jr. showed those white supremacists, they don't belong here.
From a speech by MLK:
"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality... I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word[.]" --Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Nobel Peace Prize Acceptance Speech, December 10, 1964

Racism is not hereditary. Its not chemical. Its taught. Two boys age 3, one black and one white, will both play together on the play ground. With no prompting.

I have a two year old black granddaughter. She sees no color. Her little white friends at church see no color. We prayed about this before she was adopted, for her to be able to be raised as a Christian and stay safe as she grows up. We see the looks when we take her somewhere. Amazingly, black adults and teens don't even notice her, or if they do, no comment or look is made. We have six other white grandchildren and they see no color either. Paityn is smart and funny as hell. She's two and can count to 50, she knows the pledge of allegiance, she can sing many songs, and she loves to read. She's my little princess.
