ifty years ago tonight, as a child, I was exiting our Catholic church and someone from the parking lot shouted out the following information to all of us: “They've killed King! Martin Luther King is dead!"
A cheer arose from some of the all-white crowd exiting the church. It burns in my memory to this day.
64% of white guys and 53% of white women voting for Trump was never a surprise to me. My goal remains to lessen that number and to reduce the cheers or indifference when racism rears its ugly head.
Thank you Dr. King for all you did. We carry on.
