Peace Breakfast

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

The great American hero is what I prefer to call him along with many other titles such as our King, our Leader, our Hope and so forth. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a prominent human being that will always proclaim his throne in history. He was such a passionate preacher while equipped with a captivating presence. He once said, “At the center of non-violence stands the principle of love”. What he stood for is still highly regarded in our present day.

We remember Martin Luther King Jr. because of what he instilled into the fabric of American Society. Which brings me to a strong valid point, to be in opposition to Dr. Kings ideas is to be in opposition of America. Seriously take a moment and think about humans and how we have grown, how we have changed into a progressive direction. Obviously social injustice is still alive and well all over the world, which makes me along with the rest of society aware of the long road ahead.

This year we will honor Dr. King’s legacy and the Dream he bestowed for all mankind to achieve. Thank you Dr. King for enduring hardships so the next generation will have life to breathe, like myself. Special shout out to a fellow student who has made her mark in the community. This year the MLK Peace Award goes to Candace L Johnson, a former employee in our very own office. CONGRATS!
