I\'ve just been listening to:
 

The amazing speech Martin Luther King Jnr made the night before he was assassinated on April 3rd 1968, and I was just thinking that if there is anyone on here who hasn't heard it, they might like to.

I remember the day well. It came in a very turbulent decade when the US Civil Rights movement was moving mountains, but very slowly.

JFK was killed in November 1963, Malcolm X in 1965, and shortly after Martin Luther King, Robert Kennedy was killed as well.

I was in my teens and so saddened by it all, especially at a time when Peace and Love was supposed to be all around us.

Anyway, enough of my waffling.

I'm sure he knew he was about to die.

Sadly, we still have a way to go to wipe out discrimination, cruelty and inequality in this world, but these remind me that we should all keep trying.

He certainly sparked the US to sort itself out.
