A Corollary

We went to a dinner and celebration of the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King this evening. The featured speaker was a third grade teacher at Meadville Elementary. Her main point was that, as far as we've come, the work is not finished - and no matter how much farther we go, our work will never be finished. Humans being humans, there will always be forces intent on taking away the rights of others. She likened it to the Meadville snow: "Our sidewalks will never be so clear that we can ever stop shoveling." Amen.
