Eagle Archive: 50 years later, King's letter reminds us of a journey too long

Eagle Archive: 50 years later, King's letter reminds us of a journey too long


On April 16, 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. penned a 7,000-word letter from a jail cell in Birmingham, Ala. The letter came in response to a statement by eight white Alabama pastors on April 12, 1963, titled "A Call for Unity."

King had been arrested April 12 for demonstrating in defiance of an injunction issued against the Birmingham Campaign of marches and sit-ins, which had begun on April 3.

The white clergy members argued that the cause of civil rights was better contested in the courts than the streets of Birmingham.

King's response has become famous in the study of persuasive rhetoric in which, in part, he suggested that the "wait" requested by the white pastors — who argued that 1963 was not the time for King to pursue equal rights — really meant "never."

King also put forth that non-violent civil disobedience was an appropriate response to unjust laws, and that "one has a moral responsibility to disobey unjust laws."

The letter was the origin of the now-famous argument that "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere," and quotes Chief Justice Earl Warren, "Justice too long delayed is justice denied."

His letter also referenced a few other notables, such as Paul of Tarsus, Reinhold Niebuhr, Socrates, Paul Tillich and Thomas Aquinas.
In addition to being a man of letters, King is, of course, he's best known for speaking — the most famous example being his "I Have a Dream" speech in Washington on Aug. 28, 1963.

Closer to home, we should note that a setback to the cause of King and many of his era occurred on Nov. 14, 1963, at the lunchroom of Sykesville Mayor Bernard McDougall's drug store, where Jean S. Evans and Bailey Conaway were refused service… Read more: http://www.baltimoresun.com/news/maryland/carroll/westminster/ph-ce-eagle-archive-0421-20130417,0,4791772.story

Please try to support Mahlia in this event:  

Subject: Upcoming Event Reminder - On Tuesday, February 8th, McDaniel College will host a community celebration in recognition of Black History Month. Participants will gather at 5:45 p.m. on campus at the Ward Memorial Arch and then will march down Main Street to the Carroll Arts Center (CAC).

After a brief 6:30 p.m. reception in the lobby of the arts center, guests will travel “The Road to Freedom,” taking “a journey toward peace” and equality, through a multi-media presentation on CAC’s stage by Philadelphia-based Key Arts Productions. For a preview of this moving production, visit:

Dear campus and community leaders,

Did you know that, had he not been assassinated, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. would have been speaking on the campus of Western Maryland College in mid-April 1968? What message would he have shared with us? What climate or relationships on our campus and in our community would he have witnessed and would Dr. King have addressed? How would Dr. King’s message be relevant in our lives today? Who were and are some of our very own local champions of peace, unity, justice, and equality? 

It is with great excitement that I write to share with you a wonderful opportunity for us to join together the memories of where we’ve been as a community and the journey to where we are today. On Tuesday, February 8th, McDaniel College will host a community celebration in recognition of Black History Month. Participants will gather at 5:45 p.m. on campus at the Ward Memorial Arch and then will march down Main Street to the Carroll Arts Center (CAC). With candlelight and song, we hope to join together – across racial, political, denominational, and other differences – as a community that continues in its commitment to the enduring journey towards justice and respect for all.

After a brief 6:30 p.m. reception in the lobby of the arts center, guests will travel “The Road to Freedom,” taking “a journey toward peace” and equality, through a multi-media presentation on CAC’s stage by Philadelphia-based Key Arts Productions. For a preview of this moving production, visit:

We hope that you will join us on February 8th for this very special and symbolic "March from the Arch". Bring your families. Bring your friends. Bring friends that you haven’t met yet. Bring your songs. Bring your stories. At a time when so much divides us in our nation and world, your voice and steps towards justice can truly make a difference.

For more information, contact the Office of Diversity and Multicultural Affairs at 410-857-2791 or odma@mcdaniel.edu. This event is free and open to the public.

Peace and blessings,

Mahlia

Washington Post: Oval Office rug gets history wrong By Jamie Stiehm

Washington Post: Oval Office rug gets history wrong

By Jamie Stiehm Saturday, September 4, 2010; A17 


A mistake has been made in the Oval Office makeover that goes beyond the beige.

President Obama's new presidential rug seemed beyond reproach, with quotations from Abraham Lincoln, Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin Roosevelt, John F. Kennedy and the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. woven along its curved edge.

"The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." According media reports, this quote keeping Obama company on his wheat-colored carpet is from King.

Except it's not a King quote. The words belong to a long-gone Bostonian champion of social progress. His roots in the republic ran so deep that his grandfather commanded the Minutemen at the Battle of Lexington.


For the record, Theodore Parker is your man, President Obama. Unless you're fascinated by antebellum American reformers, you may not know of the lyrically gifted Parker, an abolitionist, Unitarian minister and Transcendentalist thinker who foresaw the end of slavery, though he did not live to see emancipation. He died at age 49 in 1860, on the eve of the Civil War…
