 “Free at last, Free at last, Thank God almighty we are free at last.” This is one of the most moving phrases in MLK speech. I like how it how feels. The way the words wrap around you and leave an everlasting impression on you. I feel like the whole speech was great, but this is my favorite phrase.
      This is an absurd issue. This goes to show racsim is still a problem across the country. Yes, it isn't as prevelent as 50 years ago. Many people think racism is a thing of the past, but this article clearly shows that it hasn't completely gone away. I feel for the family. This should never happen. You can't deny one service just because of skin or if another customer feels threatened with the large group of black folk waiting for a table. It is disgusting.

Martin Luther King Jr. has the best speech on civil rights movement known to man. Black equality was a major concern for the nation. MLK dreamed about the day where skin color wasn't judged and human beings were just humans and not black, white or any other color.
