Shoe Game: Red Wing Boots

Those of you who know me, know that I absolutely loathe Polo Boots. Why, you ask? Because a lot of men in Memphis wear them with everything, anywhere, and anytime! I actually saw a guy in the club with a tux on with Polo boots. Unacceptable!

Remembering Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr (1929-1968)

 

It has been almost 42 years ago, that Civil Rights Leader, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. was assassinated in this very city of Memphis. Back then, blacks in America were fighting for justice and equal rights and opportunities as other races. They were hosed down, killed, jailed, spit upon, and called all kinds of obsenities. However, one man, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. decided that they would retaliate by being non-violent–a movement that not only garnered local national attention, but intertnational attention as well.  It was his dream that all men could live in peace and harmony together. It was his dream that blacks, whites, hispanics, native americans, or indians would not be judged by their skin color but by their character.

Today, we remember Dr. King and for all that he did to help Black Americans. It is because of him and others who came before and after him, that myself and others are able to drive, live, shop, and eat where we want to. I am thankful today for his dream and I encourage you all to be thankful too.  For those of you who did not get a chance to go to the National Civil Rights Museum today, I encourage you to go another day.  Don’t let this be the only day that you remember his dream. Keep the dream alive and don’t let it die. 

If you have time, watch the video below with his full “I Have A Dream” speech that he gave at the Lincoln Memorial  Washington, DC in 1963.
