Martin Luther King Jr., the civil rights leader, Baptist minister and founder of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference believed in a strict separation of church and state.
Martin Luther King Jr. asked: “What are you doing for others?”
In his lifetime, he was surveilled, criticized, and opposed for demanding racial justice and collective responsibility.
His legacy reminds us that justice is a shared responsibility.
He murdered her, and he's still free. We're letting murderers roam the streets. www.nytimes.com/video/us/100...
Do we need more woke or something? Still don’t know what “woke” is but things seemed better when we had it.

Every Bean down in Beanville loved Christmas, it’s true!
Till brands monetized all of it... Then sold it to you.

Book announcement!
The fact that a second strike like that in an armed conflict is definitely a war crime should not completely negate the fact that *there is no war* and ALL the strikes are cold-blooded murder. The whole chain of command are murderers.
