having been graced by living in the days of stable families, attending high school as the first blacks came into my school and us liking one another an awfully lot, going into the fun of the beatles, becoming a flower power hippie, having a lot of disposable income, and then ! boom ! watching dr. martin luther king get assassinated--what do you think america would be like today if he had not been killed? i remember the times of peace and love, the time that everyone got along relatively well, even of different race, and then, when king was shot, all of a sudden people stopped publicly hugging. women's lib and black power groups began to run the show. hatred crept in. never did we go back to those peaceful times, life just became more stressful and filled with spite. do you think that if MLK continued his preachings that our society would have less racial hatred? i think so, and i wish he wasn't shot. he added SO MUCH to brotherly love. what do you think?
