Happy MLK Day

[amarie24]

And here Imma share what is still my favorite discovered MLK speech, Somebody Told a Lie One Day.

Yes, I'm black. I'm proud of it. I'm black and beautiful.

Happy, happy birthday to you, my dear sir. May you rest in peace and power.

I knew I'd seen a clip somewhere of a Dr. King speech in which he discussed the metaphorical meanings of "black" and "white" in context of anti-black racism and I could never find it again

HERE IT IS THANK YOU

Aww, you're so very welcome, friend!

And yeah, here it is on YouTube if you really wanna save it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=podSc5KA6RA

I can just put it on repeat over and over and over again...-sighs blissfully-
