remembering a dream

Last night's episode of The Boondocks was on point, exploring what the world may have been like if Dr. King had fallen into a coma when shot instead of being killed. Check for the re-run later in the week if you missed it. McGruder so bitingly illustrates that though we may have come a long ways in the fight for civil liberties, we still have a long way to go, and that distance seems to continue to get longer with every reactionary right wing judge that gets appointed to the bench...

Here a snippet of Dr. King's famous speech.
