Well, I leaned a little more toward SNNC myself, GUEST, GUEST but I don't think there would have been a SNNC without the work of Dr. King, and others, prior to SNNC...

As for Obama, there is another thread on him for hashing out differences of opinion... But this thread is about our memories of Dr. King and if folks don't mind I'm just going to dance in and out of it and not get caught up in tangental issues...

Way back in 1957, Dr, King addressed the students at the University of California at Berkeley... He was invited jointly by the local chapters of the WMCA andf WYCA... The date was June 4th.

"...there are some things within our social order to which I am proud to be maladjusted and to which I call upon you to be maladjutsed. I never intend to adjust myself to segregation and discrimination. I never intend to adjuts myself to mob rule. I never intend to adjust myself to thentragic effects of the meathods of physical violence and to tragic militarism. I call upon you to be maladjutsed to such things. I call upon you t be maladjusted as Amos who in the midst of injustices of his day cried out in words that echo accross the generation, 'Let judegment run down like waters and righteousness like a mighty stream.'"
