Celebrating Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

We remember Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. who would have celebrated his 83rd birthday today.

Dr. King was the most iconic figure of the Civil Rights movement in the United States. In 1964 he was award the Nobel Peace Prize for his work to end racial segregation and discrimination through civil disobedience and nonviolent.

Dr. King embodied copious qualities of an individual who had a Blue Brain Personality. He desired peace and harmony, was a remarkable and inspirational orator, showed compassion to everyone and spoke the truth about the injustice that is created by ignorance and prejudice.

Happy Birthday Dr. King and thank you for your “Praiseworthy Gifts” that changed the world to be less exclusionary and more inclusionary!

    Great post about a great man. MLK had more courage and integrity than anyone I can think of in my lifetime.

      Jeff, thank you for your comments. Yes, Dr. King was remarkable man with great courage and integrity. It is a shame he is not with us today, to offer his wisdom and collaborative perspective! Our country and the world lost a grand leader and teacher when he was assassinated. It would be encouraging if we had more leaders like Dr. King… brave, honest and committed to the well-fare of all people!
