If Rosa Parks had not refused to move to the back of the bus, you and I might never have heard of Dr Martin Luther King.

Luther was guilty of two great crimes - he struck the Pope in his crown, and the monks in their belly.

Martin Luther King challenged the conscience of my generation, and his words and his legacy continue to move generations to action today at home and around the world. His love and faith is alive in millions of Americans who volunteer each day in soup kitchens or in schools, or who refused to ignore the suffering of millions they'd never met in far-away places when a tsunami brought unthinkable destruction. His vision and his passion is alive in churches and on campuses when millions stand up against the injustice of discrimination anywhere, or the indifference that leaves too many behind.

I left thinking August's lost his mind,.. When I read 'The Piano Lesson,' I realized it encompassed the entire African-American experience. August Wilson's legacy is as important as Martin Luther King's legacy, as important as Malcolm X's legacy and as important as Nat Turner.

We always have the deal that they can leave up until Opening Day. It's a little frustrating. But I'm used to it and the fact that we had Luther who was ready to close... He just steps right in and makes it a little more palatable.

Martin Luther King Jr. Was all about bringing races together and people of all kinds together and promoting equality. We use today as a day to reflect on that we aren't all treated equally in our community and maybe we need to work together.

Martin Luther King said the moral arc bends towards justice. I'm glad he's getting out because at least he can find ways to take care of his family.

I would hate to think that the carwash on Martin Luther King is the only place that is susceptible to being dealt with under the nuisance law. I've got a thousand drug houses in that neighborhood that the SAFE [Support Abatement Forfeiture and Enforcement] team has got to be aware of.

Kids in the '60s, you know, are disillusioned. There is no question about that. They feel that John Kennedy went, Bobby Kennedy went, Martin Luther King went-they were all killed-and the kids do feel that the lights have gone out in Camelot, the banners are furled, and the parade is over.

They, in their own way, continued to carry the torch that Martin Luther King did.

This is absolutely unbelievable. I cannot believe that this is true because it is that unbelievable that companies with the reputations of Tyson and Wal-Mart when it comes to the way they have treated their employees would be considered for an award in the name of Martin Luther King. No one in their right minds would be nominating such companies; therefore, it was a mistake. You got it wrong or they sent out the wrong release.

Lee-Jackson Day does not receive equal treatment in Virginia with Martin Luther King Jr. Day. You will not see much in the way of official observances of it from the state level, although you will likely see many state-sponsored services from state colleges and agencies for Martin Luther King Jr. Day. You will see most of your local banks open on Friday, but they will be closed Monday.

I remember learning about Martin Luther King as a child and throughout my education. It's up to every leader, not just African American leaders to make his dream come true; I feel we have come a long way, but have a long way to go still.
