Most of us will be listening to famous speeches by Martin Luther King today. While we are all considering –the mountain side—and a letter written from the Birmingham jail, I wanted to pass this little treasure along. A number of years ago the Sundance Channel offered a TV series called “Iconoclast” where modern day icons interviewed one another. One of their most powerful episodes brought together a conversation between Maya Angelou and Dave Chappelle. Though this is a piece I commend to you today (Martin Luther King Day) I also hope you will watch it sometime later with a note-pad. For the show is a treasure-chest of provocative quotes, thoughts and history sharing two iconic and multigenerational perspectives on ---being a Black/African-American in U.S.A. Happy Martin Luther King day, And like Isaiah on Mt. Sinai, let us all “raise our voice like trumpets” (Isaiah 59:1-10) LET FREEDOM RING! youtu.be/okc6COsgzoE?list=PLTWMLbREWLs341wiWkJX_2EFCJJJk15Sp
