...your old men shall dream dreams, and your young men shall see visions... ~ Joel 2:28
...Do not be afraid... ~Luke 2:10
Fifty years ago today a black man with a dream of human equality and dignity was murdered by an angry white man who feared human equality and dignity as a threat to the prevalent lie of white supremacy. The black man's dream as well as the white man's fear continue to comfort and haunt the American psyche.
Somewhere in this struggle is the ultimate hope that the dream is our true destiny and the fear a distorted illusion.
