Martin Luther King, Jr. Day Was Yesterday...
post #1

I seen an article was done on the site but I would like to remind others of his 5'7 height.

He never let it get in the way of his calling so don't let it for you.

Gandhi was also a shorter man, I think only 5'4 who achieved great things. I completely forgot about MLK Day.

He isn't taking away from the freedoms blacks gained because of MLK, he is just stating that his height was a non-issue in fighting for his dreams.

This was a good man and I am glad he has a day for people to remember what he did. It is a shame so much of the black community still remains enslaved by their own means and faults though.

speaking of slavery and MLK, here is a very good short article about a form of prejudice and oppression which the vast majority of human beings on this planet willingly and happily support on a daily basis:

Stay away from Doc Martins

I wore a pair to work and the comments about me trying to cover up my height wouldn't stop. So annoying.

Cotto/Martinez fight

The ol boy won after being knocked out 4 times and is now relevant again. He now is the first Puerto Rican boxer to win belts in four weight classes. Even though he lost to Mayweather, Cotto is my favorite fighter. He's saying its the best performance of his career. What do you think of the fight?
