Socialist, adulterer, peacenik, and plagiarist. All of these things are mean nothing to the millions who demanded equality and freedom from the social injustice that was Jim Crow. To me this day doesn't just mean how different races can live in harmony, it also means trying to find ways the change the world in a peaceful manner.

MLK was (from what i gather) a great human being who fought for the rights of everyone. He was way ahead of his time. Unfortunatly, he was a little TOO ahead of his time as humans are not yet ready to grasp his concepts of love, peace and equality.

I don't believe in equality, I believe in balance. I don't think that should be dependent on factors you can't control though (such as race, sex, normality, origin, etc.).
