"Eğer sizden sokakları süpürmeniz istenirse, Michelangelo'nun resim, Beethoveen'in beste yaptığı veya Shakespeare'in şiir yazdığı gibi süpürün. O kadar güzel süpürün ki yerdeki ve gökteki herkes durup 'Burada işini çok iyi yapan büyük bir çöpçü yaşıyormuş' desin."

Today is the Great Ancestor Dr. Martin Luther King's Birthday, and a day we should honor and hold in the higest regard. But never forget what they did to not only him, but his family as well. Ignore the FAKE PRAISE from White society today and always remember they hated King, which is why they not only Killed him but members of his family as well.

President Donald Trump and Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. may seem like contrasting figures at first glance
but they do have similarities. Both of them have fought tirelessly for civil rights and equality for all American citizens. They have both dedicated their lives to serving the American people and have made significant contributions towards the betterment of society.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a prominent leader in the civil rights movement, advocating for equal rights regardless of race or color. His famous “I have a dream” speech continues to inspire millions around the world. Similarly, President Donald Trump has made it a priority to ensure that all American citizens are treated fairly and have equal opportunities. He has implemented policies that have created a level playing field for everyone, regardless of their background.
One common aspect between these two individuals is their passion and determination to fight for what they believe in. Both Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Donald Trump have faced opposition and criticism throughout their careers, yet they have remained steadfast in their pursuit of justice and equality. Their unwavering dedication serves as an inspiration for others to stand up for their beliefs and work towards creating a better society.
Furthermore, both Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Donald Trump have shown great resilience in the face of adversity. They have faced numerous challenges and setbacks and have literally bled for America citizens, but they have never wavered in their commitment to bringing about positive change. Their perseverance serves as a reminder that progress is possible, even in the most difficult times.
While Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and President Donald Trump may have different approaches and backgrounds, they share a common goal of fighting for civil rights and equality for all American citizens. Their dedication, passion, and resilience are qualities that should be admired and emulated by all those who strive for a more just society.

106.) In 2016, I asked for some suggestions as to what I could depict on a sweater in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. One of the top ideas was the “I have a dream” speech. My ‘dream’ of such a sweater came true a year later and I’ve worn it on MLK Day every year since. I also wore it on April 4, 2018, the 50 year anniversary of his death, and at various other relevant times. Because the speech and Dr. King’s death happened before I was born, I used an app to superimpose myself in front of a picture of the event. #sambarsky #sambarskysweaters #sambarskyknitter #knit #knitting #knitter #art #artist #sweater #intarsia #handknit #martinlutherking #martinlutherkingjr #mlk #martinlutherkingjrday #martinlutherkingday #mlkday #ihaveadream #ihaveadreamspeech #dream #washingtonmonument #lincolnmemorial #harriettubman #undergroundrailroad #rosaparks https://www.instagram.com/p/CqWQC4lvpS_/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

On this day 54 years ago, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was murdered while standing on a balcony at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee.
The night before, Dr. King delivered his “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop” speech in support of the striking sanitation workers at Mason Temple in Memphis.
During that powerful final sermon, Dr. King reflected on the long road ahead: "And I've seen the promised land. I may not get there with you. But I want you to know tonight, that we, as a people, will get to the promised land."
On this somber anniversary, we hold deep gratitude for Dr. King's life and work — as well as 𝘳𝘢𝘥𝘪𝘤𝘢𝘭 𝘩𝘰𝘱𝘦 for a more just, free, and equal world.

Today In History Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Baptist minister and civil rights activist, was born in Atlanta, GA, on this date January 15, 1929. Dr. King led the first mass civil rights movement in the United States, and was an iconic figure in the advancement of civil rights for African Americans in the United States and around the world. Dr. King is widely regarded as one of the greatest leaders in world history. He used the power of words and acts of nonviolent resistance, such as protests, grassroots organizing, and civil disobedience to achieve seemingly-impossible goals. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., lead similar campaigns against poverty and international conflict, always maintaining fidelity to his principles that men and women everywhere, regardless of color or creed, are equal members of the human family. "I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right, temporarily defeated, is stronger than evil triumphant."
