Reflections on MLK s life and legacy - Roswell Daily Record

Copyright © 2021 Roswell Daily Record Martin Luther King Jr. was kicked, beaten and jailed for the color of his skin. His response to the horrors happening to him was to answer his critics with love, not hate. King refused to give into hatred, or think of himself as inferior because of the color of his skin. King’s response was to lift the lives of Americans and African Americans to a higher level to receive their civil rights. For every mountaintop moment lived out, such as the March on Washington, Aug. 28, 1963, King’s iconic “I Have a Dream,” there were moments lived in the valleys. For many minorities, the scars of discrimination are long-lasting and deep. They know what it is like to have been shunned for opportunities and to have doors closed that affected their growth and lifestyle. They know there is a debt to be paid for the ancestors that have walked before African Americans today.
