The Martin Luther King Parade 2018 In Miami. By Geniusofdespair

I expected some disrespect for Trump at the the Parade but there really wasn't any. A few vague references but that was it. There was a Dump Trump sign held by 3 white guys.

We have always been lucky to have a great Public Defender. Carlos J. Martinez I have the greatest respect for.

Majorettes in Staging Area

This was one of those vague references to Trump: A time to pray.

Not so vague....

Trump's Biggest Blunder Ever: Attacking John Lewis. By Geniusofdespair

John Lewis and Martin Luther King
 Does Donald even know who he is messing with on Twitter? And on Martin Luther King's Birthday. He is so stupid it is mind boggling. Lewis is a hero and civil rights Icon.

This attack on Lewis is going to be big trouble for the Tweeter in Chief. In fact, Trump has mischaracterized Lewis's district.

And, Trump hasn't stopped with the twitter crap. That is the crazy part, he knows he is a God of Civil Rights...and he keeps going.

I almost forgot to post the best speech ever: I Have a Dream. by Geniusofdespair

And he is the best speaker ever!



Watch on Youtube.

I've Been to the Mountaintop, Martin Luther King's last speech. He is prophetic of his own death in this short speech. It is eerie.

Watch the damn videos. If you only watch one damn video today, watch the Mountaintop (It is only a 2 minutes excerpt). WARNING: You might cry knowing he is going to be assassinated the next day.

Martin Luther King Disrespected by the National Parks. By Geniusofdespair

Next week will be the 50th anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have a Dream Speech" and the reflecting pool in Atlanta, where his remains rest, looks like shit. Sorry Atlanta.

The National Parks should be ashamed. They have signs saying they are fixing it, but come on. It is is all rusty on the bottom and nasty looking and the National Park knew this anniversary was coming. There is stuff floating in the pool, no fountains, the water looked stagnant and there was algae growing.

It sure didn't look like this first photo -- this is how it looked 3 years ago, the first time I saw it, the water softly moving towards the crypt of Martin Luther King, drawing you to it.

First time I was there.
A few days ago it looked worse than this.
