Sluggo: If I can dream of a better land...Where all my brothers walk hand in hand....Tell me why...oh....why...ohhh...why can't my dream come true? Elvis Presley cut that song in 1968! But It's more than just a good old Elvis song! At least, it should be! It's up to US to LIVE it...And finally make THE DREAM REAL!

It’s up to each of us to keep the dream alive! No matter WHO is occupying the white house, each of us as individuals can be kind to one another and stand up to the bullies who would take away our rights. Start on your own block and show the haters they don’t always get their way!

“First, I must confess that over the past few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.” Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection." -MLK, letter from a birmingham jail

We can each do our part in this to one another and especially to strangers. It is the only way.
