With my mother. Daddyโ€™s funeral.

He wasnโ€™t assassinated because he wanted his children to be judged โ€œby the content of their character.โ€

But for dismantling racism, poverty & militarism.

He wanted corrective measures to eradicate racism, not the delusion that it doesnโ€™t exist.

Many folks who use โ€œwokeโ€ with contempt today probably would have hated Daddy when he was alive.

He was very conscious and committed to eradicating what he called the Triple Evils of racism, poverty and militarism.

If youโ€™re quoting him to stop truthful teaching about himโ€ฆ

A6 Also participated in a local seminar run by Races United here in KC. Another good one was Dr. La Garrett King's summer pd on Black History when he was at MU. He's now in Buffalo, NY.

A3. A couple of years ago, I decided to see if i could find a local connection to Dr. King. I found a newspaper article that chronicled the 6 visits he made to KC and the purpose of each. This is what my students will read this week.

A2 Our community usually has an event, though I don't remember one being advertised this year. The Social Studies Dept requires all of us to commemorate the day in some way, but no plan.

A1 Throughout my years of teaching, I wanted my students to understand who and what he was. My lessons were constantly evolving as my understanding did too.
