MLK Holiday 2011

Among all the many prayers to be offered today, let there be one that our young people will understand the life-affirming struggle that Dr. King led and that they will not buy into codes that lead to meaningless deaths.

  1. The pledge of nonviolence written by Martin Luther King Jr., and signed by his marchers, 1963
    As you prepare to march meditate on the life and teachings of Jesus


    Remember the nonviolent movement seeks justice and reconciliation - not victory.


    Walk and talk in the manner of love; for God is love.


    Pray daily to be used by God that all men and women might be free.


    Sacrifice personal wishes that all might be free.


    Observe with friend and foes the ordinary rules of courtesy.


    Perform regular service for others and the world.


    Refrain from violence of fist, tongue and heart.


    Strive to be in good spiritual and bodily health.


    Follow the directions of the movement leaders and of the captains on demonstrations.

  3. To 6:01AM - please remember that, I believe, most are targeted shootings. They are not after you, but a group of low lifes who are able to live in this city.

    And, I hope you vote and get involved in the city politics. It is the only way to stay safe - Demand it!
