a ®eMark from eMark ™
I had a dream… No, literally, me, eMark from ®eMark™, had a dream!
Believe me, I know the power, and well-earned respect Dr. Martin Luther King’s golden words command. I admit, I had second thoughts about penning this.
The reason I want this published, is because of Dr. King. He literally gave his life to make a better one for generations to come. He stood for an unwavering movement to achieve equality, equity, and respect for roughly 13% of us Americans, that were forgotten, especially in the years he preached and marched.
My dream is founded in the present-day opinions of many Civil Rights leaders, some that walked side by side with Dr. Martin Luther King. Black men of great stature and reverence. Men like Roy Innis (passed away at 82, in 2017), Andrew Young (88), Bob Woodson (83), Larry Elder (68), Leo Terrell, (65), made his switch to conservatism within this year!
In my dream, Dr. Martin Luther King was never shot, and at 88, (days after Donald J Trump took office), Dr. King ask for and was granted a meeting in the White House. Trump listened to Dr. King’s ideas and ask his cabinet to move forward on many of those improvements.
You say, Ha! What total fantasy! Several famous black men and women not only had audience with President Trump, but got results, (prison reform, commuted sentences, pardons, and added protection to any city that will ask for it, to mention a few.)
Most of those hallowed black men I mentioned, were at one time, Democrats. Observation, over the vast number of years these men were in leadership roles, convinced them there was credence and real progress in conservative values.
So, it is very feasible that, were he alive today, Dr. Martin Luther King might very well have found conservatism to be the authentic, permanent, repair to racial inequities. Wise men discovered that going for the ‘shiny object’ is a fool’s errand. Real change come from legal fairness, hard work, and daily earned respect.
