On this Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, a recommendation: read this book, especially if you live in the United States.

It casts so much light on the foundations and history of our society, and it's beautifully written.

A Songday for today, from the MLK 4/3/1968 speech. https://musescore.com/user/30768085/scores/22997281/s/fZ5e8R?share=copy_link

This is from the rhythm in the words, not the music in his voice, although he had a very prosodic voice.

Mr Fingers - Can You Feel It (Martin Luther King Jr Mix)

“Now, I say to you today, my friends, even though we face the difficulties of today and tomorrow, I still have a dream. It is a dream deeply rooted in the American dream. I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal. [...] In spite of the difficulties and frustrations of the moment, I still have a dream.”
― Martin Luther King Jr.

I'm too young to remember the March of 1963 but it had a huge impact on the America I grew up in. That is the America that the racist fascist about to enter the White House wants to undo.

We must not sacrifice what so many people fought so long for, sacrificed so much for, to appease white supremacists.
