Barry Bloom Martin Luther King, Jr carried out a prolonged effort as the head of a movement to bring civil rights alive for African-Americans and other besieged minorities in the US, affecting millions around the world as well. What can we learn from his powerful intention? Despite obstacles that would stop many lesser souls in their tracks, he persevered till the moment of his untimely death. How can we learn from his life, his leadership, his courage and strength, to be better human beings? May we learn how to continue to fulfill his mission, one person, one day, at a time.
