These set of eyes are not those of a singer but the eyes of a man whose primary purpose was to help bring attention towards gaining justice, equality and respect. His voice was full and carried words which visualized his dreams. Through peaceful protests and marches he gained the attention and support of millions throughout this entire nation. Sadly, he was assassinated on April 4, 1968, at the age of 39.
“The black revolution is much more than a struggle for the rights of Negroes. It is forcing America to face all its interrelated flaws—racism, poverty, militarism, and materialism.
