A valuable Read by Martin Luther King, Jr.
This read both showed me some erroneous thinking on my part and at the same time, healed me with a renewed hope.Happy Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Everybody! May we more closely live the principles of peace and goodwill among all people. Here a brief excerpt from the letter following, a quote by Thomas Aquinas: An unjust law is a human law that is not rooted in eternal law and natural law. Any law that uplifts human personality is just. Any law that degrades human personality is unjust. All segregation statutes are unjust because segregation distort the soul and damages the personality. It gives the segregator a false sense of superiority and the segregated a false sense of inferiority.

Politics, it seems to me, for years, or all too long, has been concerned with right or left instead of right or wrong. ~Richard Armour

There are many men of principle in both parties in America, but there is no party of principle. ~Alexis de Tocqueville
