"The first truth is that the liberty of a democracy is not safe if the people tolerate the growth of private power to a point where it becomes stronger than their democratic state itself. That, in its essence, is fascism — ownership of government by an individual, by a group, or by any other controlling private power. ”
— Franklin D. Roosevelt
I have started watching some of the different news outlets, and so far none is talking about Dr. King. I'm looking at a news papers web site from memphis called the Commercial Appeal, and they have the collage basketball team on as the leading story. There is a write up on the King story. I do have to say that that paper keeps a link to Dr. King. Most people have forgotten already.
Young blacks today will never fully understand how good their life is compared to what their parents and grandparents went through when they were their age.
