A sad development

Sadly, King's widow and children have tried to make their husband/father into a life-long cash machine.

Last week in Atlanta, near the King Memorial Natl. Park, an interesting "Walk of Fame" was unveiled. They had gotten significant civil rights figures to donate a pair of shoes, and the walk included "footprints" from these shoes. Jesse, Lowery, and several others still living were on hand for the event.

Amazingly, King was not included. The family had wanted a royalty fee to be included.

What a great man, now besmirched by a money-grabbing family.
