As we mark the 40th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., I wanted to share with everyone, Bill Cahir's statement of what Dr. King means to him:
The 40th anniversary of the assassination of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., reminds us that Dr. King was more than a spokesman for civil rights. Dr. King was one of the great heroes of the 20th Century. He challenged all Americans to make real the Constitution's promise of equal rights, universal justice and due process under law. We remember Dr. King not as a victim, but as a leader who helped revive the Southern economy, enhance the voting rights of all citizens and breathe new life into the U.S. Constitution. Dr. King was a rebel and a patriot; his dream is alive today; and the country is a better place because of it.
