I thought the article, which is not in itself inspiring conveyed the message Dr King gave. The couple featured understood what he was saying and it appears they lived their life in that spirit.

Men cannot be judged by one action or misaction and certainly Dr King failed as a man at times, but his message was so enthralling, so all encompassing, IF YOU LISTENED TO IT. He was a peaceful man, who would not understand some of what is happening today in the name of "continuing his legacy". He would be appalled and push aside those who even used his name to try and inspire.

I salute him today.
