The following is an editorial.
Since practically the dawn of time there alas have been those among us who seek to belittle, categorize, and even segregate their fellow human beings regarding race, creed, skin color, wealth or the lack thereof, our various personal preferences, and other aspects real or imagined.
Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or the darkness of destructive selfishness.
While peace, understanding, co-existence, harmony, and the other forces of good have been triumphant over the centuries, it amazes me that such narrow minded viewpoints still persist to this day.
Nothing in the world is more dangerous than sincere ignorance and conscientious stupidity.
We are one race upon a singular planet within the vastness of the universe.
Regardless of who you are, we must all work together for not only the betterment of this world, but ourselves and our civilization today and the generations to come.
I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
All the words in blue are quotes from the late Doctor Martin Luther King, Junior, a man assassinated because he dared to believe in peace and nonviolent resolutions to the problems that face us all.
I say to you today, my friends, so even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream.
We honor the dreamer today and strive to carry on until his dream fully becomes reality from now until long after anyone reading these words is only with us in spirit.
The above was an editorial.
