It seems as if he's still alive. He was a source of inspiration and challenge, he gives me more courage related to racial issues, very impressed by his passivism and how he can make such an impact without showing anger or disdain towards others. I believe every race needs a "drum major" for the ills that are perpetrated on their people. He was very knowledgeable about the issues related to all races, not just African Americans. In addition, he made me very proud to be Black and the statue in Washington, D.C. is replica of the ills and trials he went through to increase our awareness and knowledge. Finally, his christian faith made it possible for him to forgive his enemies and it showed me the importance of loving those who don't or won't love you because of your skin color.
