Longread #238 -- Letter from Birmingham Jail -- 1/21/13

Though it's a holiday and technically not a work day, I want to post this longread in honor of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. It's been on my list of articles to post on the blog for a long time, and obviously today is an appropriate day (although, any day would be).

"Letter from a Birmingham Jail" by Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

  1. One of my favorite MLK quotes to celebrate this amazing man:

    The hope of a secure and livable world lies with disciplined nonconformists, who are dedicated to justice, peace, and brotherhood. The trailblazers in human, academic, scientific, and religious freedom have always been nonconformists. In any cause that concerns the progress of mankind, put your faith in the nonconformist! -Martin Luther King, Jr.
