KRS One on MLK & the Hip Hop Nation

# on January 16th 2006 at 12:13 pm in Interesting Links, Media, Religion & Politics

KRS-One wrote an essay, Reflections on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the Hip Hop Nation. Incidentally I wrote a little blurb on MLK just yesterday.

Today, on MLK-day, we should:

* Let us fast from spending money on things we really don’t need.
* Let us tend to the needs of the poor; wherever and whoever they may be.
* Let us watch any of the documentaries on Dr. King with our families.
* Let us repent and stop disrespecting Dr. Martin Luther King Blvd.
* Let us support all museums and community centers bearing Dr. King’s name.
* Let us abstain from illegal drug use as well as alcohol and junk foods.
* Let us show mercy, love, care and forgiveness toward one another.
* Let us honor our parents, elders and ancestors.
* Let us share ideas, food, etc with someone from a different race or ethnicity.
* LET US BEGIN TO ACT LIKE THE NATION THAT DR. KING SAW IN HIS DREAM!
