even as I acknowledge that it comes from a place of sadness
the sadness is because of the promise of a dream that has never been fully achieved
Coy Barefoot runs a radio program in Charlottesville, on which I have been a periodic guest: I got to know Coy when he was on staff at the Sorensen Institute for Political Leadership at the University of Virginia and I was in the 2008 cohort of their flagship program, the political leaders program.
On August 28 of last year I was his guest because 50 years earlier I had attended the March on Washington.
This link will take you to the just under 13 minutes of that radio appearance. Why I am proud of it is my ability to put things into a larger context than most people applied either to the March then, King's speech, or what it means for us today.
13 minutes is not so long.
Perhaps you might find it of some use.
Peace.
