Today we remember the efforts of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., who worked to end racial oppression.

Here in America, I feel his dream has been realized as best is humanly possible and it is time to move to a new phase in America’s development. Because in my opinion America is Now The Black Man’s Paradise! Which is why Blacks from other countries come to America to do better for themselves. America now offers more opportunity and even more special “programs” to Blacks just for being born Black, than any other country in the world.

So it is time to make the best of paradise, since paradise does not stop anyone from hurting themselves.

To that end, I am going to give you something that is much more of a challenge and good solution. To overcome a problem that plagues American society. I’m not going to give you a cheering section, using a speech from times past. While I could easily pull a MLK Jr. speech for you, I am compelled by my own conscience to give a solution instead of persistent remembrance.

So for this MLK-Day I give you Shelby Steel’s piece “Witness”. If you have not already read it, then it’s time to read it.
