Title: "I Have A Dream" Post by: vita4all on February 15, 2008, 06:04:25 pm For Black History Month: A Tribute To Martin Luther King, Jr. (http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa23/cVitaNoble/Sims2Art/MLK-1963-inDC-Flag_by-vita4all.jpg) The black & white portion of this portrait is from a news photo of the 1963 Washington D.C. march for civil rights. It was here where he gave his famous "I Have A Dream" speech. I added the flag. Despite discrimination, King loved his country and was an avid supporter for the rights, respect and dignity of everyone. My favorite quote by him applies to all, from small families to nations: "We can live together as brothers, or perish together as fools." - MLK (http://i202.photobucket.com/albums/aa23/cVitaNoble/Sims2Art/MLK-InStone-vita4all.jpg) This fabulous art work is by Crea8it, who won first place in a contest last year. Thank you. Find on these frames: Grilled Cheese, 2DogsOlive, Bella, Cantankerous Splatter. Title: "I Have A Dream" Post by: kim on February 16, 2008, 02:23:23 pm Nice Job

Title: "I Have A Dream" Post by: vita4all on February 17, 2008, 03:15:27 am I appreciate all of your comments. In particular, MLK in stone is an amazing piece of artwork, isn't it?
King's strategy to end discrimination was an important road map for other groups who needed a fair chance for opportunities and for equality, including women and gays. There are so many known and unknown heroes who made small and large sacrifices. Some have yet to be born. We can all be heroes in small ways. There's an old saying: Give a man a fish, and you feed him for a day. Teach him how to fish, and you feed him for a lifetime. With this in mind, I leave you with a thought: Free time on your hands? Tutor a child in reading or math. Feed him for life. Title: "I Have A Dream" Post by: Ariadna on February 17, 2008, 06:10:35 am thanks :)
