On This Day In 1968

We had a great man taken from us by a vile murderer. Dr. Martin Luther King was taken from us all too soon, at a time when he was still desperately needed. We have never, and may never, fully recover from this loss as a nation. We can only hope to try to continue forward with his message and hope for the best. His messages still resonate across the years and we should be willing to lift up the torch of his message and carry it forward, until we too reach that promised land.
