Virtual tour of new memorial honoring Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr in Washington D. C.

"In late 1996, then-President Bill Clinton signed legislation proposing the creation of a Martin Luther King, Jr. memorial in Washington, DC (It is nearing completion).

There are a couple ways you can help make the dream a reality and speed the memorial's completion. Donate at least $5 and get a wristband (or something more) or download the MLK Memorial toolbar and watch five cents be donated toward the memorial every time you use it to search for something online."

Freedom Maverick Awards

The awards below were inspired by a photograph that I took at The State House in downtown Columbia, South Carolina. There is so much said about the Confederate flag that hangs there, but I never have seen much about the African American Monument that depicts the history of African Americans. Taking down a flag alone does not change a people's vision. Those we acknowledge as being a Freedom Maverick (a word coined by Angela Y.Walton-Raji in podcast #91) will help us have the right perspective.
