#MLK from his speech #TheOtherAmerica , sharing about the myth of time.

My father, from his speech #TheOtherAmerica .

Happy Birthday Dr. Martin Luther King Jr‼️ 👑 ✊🏿🐐

Just a reminder, it wasn't the 'I Have A Dream' speech that got Dr. King assassinated. It was 'The Other America' speech.

A riot is the language of the unheard... #TheOtherAmerica #MLKJr #TimelessWisdom #GeorgeFloyd #Minneapolis #BlackLifeMatters #StopKillingUs

Poor Americans are forced to live in neighborhoods where garbage collection is infrequent, roads are like minefields, stores often do not have much fresh produce & the schools are not well supplied and staffed.
