King’s words, all of them, to be restored - The Washington Post
Keywords:
Tags:
The mangled inscription on the Martin Luther King memorial in Washington D.C. The original inscription was shortened from four sentences to one sentence with much of the meaning lost, even distorted. The original phrases were about Dr King saying "a drum major" attitude is not a thing one has to be careful about because it can lead to an egoistic view. There are many words of Dr King which would have better served the purpose at the memorial, why these were chosen remains a mystery.

A D.C. Neighborhood, a World Away
Wall Street Journal 01/20/2009
We took a different way to help millions around the world build educated informed mindsets that affects and shapes their lives. For a future that is open, global and digital, with everyone having access to high quality information. We believe in the renewal of America, renewal of Europe, the renewal of India, the rest of Asia, Latin America and Africa. The renewal of our supply chains, health, education, infrastructure, as we rebuild our countries after the pandemic. Literacy and knowledge we believe cannot thrive and grow in a world of web bots, web crawlers, or AI. This requires human curiosity, human learning, and human imagination. We take as inspiration the saying- “One has to be free, and as broad as sky. One has to have a mind that is crystal clear, only then can truth shine in it.” Every contribution whether big or small is precious- in this crisis and ahead.
