I am very happy today.
Happy to see the renewed interest in the fighting spirit of Rev Dr Martin Luther King Jr.
The film Selma shows us a glimpse into what feels like a real man. Not a saintly martyr, but s shrew, intelligent, and thoughtful man. A Christian man, serving his community – a man standing up to power using his own powerful spirit, as well as resting upon the God of his understanding.
Selma gives us a portrayal of a man perfect in his imperfection – he is the right man for this time and this task. We see his struggle and we see his triumph – this film is a work of art.
I am happy for the memory of this devoted servant of God – Happy for my African American people that this film exists.
It is a gift to humanity.
As Dr King was, a gift to humanity.
Birthday Blessings Dr King.
See this film – take your children .
Change the world.
