Yes We Did


"And if I had one wish: if Dr. King could have just been there for a second in time, would have made my heart rejoice. And so it was kind of duo-fold - his ascension into leadership and the price that was paid to get him there."

Election night: Jesse Jackson who was standing beside Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. when he was assassinated in 1968. "He earned those tears."

My dad used to tell me I was going to earn my tears just before he smacked me with the wooden spoon.
