Dr. Ruler grew up in the South where racial separation was a tradition that must be adhered to. Dark Americans took a chance with prison time for getting to public facilities like water fountains, parks, bathrooms, eateries, and lodgings.

Dr. That's what the lord taught "haziness can't drive out murkiness, no one but light can do that." In his memory, we endeavor to challenge brutality and bias with effortlessness and goodness.

This Sunday, I will offer my appreciation and offer my thanks for his life and heritage by talking at administrations at his esteemed Ebenezer Baptist Church.

Will we honor Dr. Lord's inheritance by rising together — buttressed by one another's victories, enhanced by one another's disparities, and made entirely by one another's sympathy? I accept we can. It will require consistent consideration for our majority rules system, obstinate confidence in this extraordinary examination, and a pledge to get rid of separation in all structures. It will request legit reflection about how far we have come and how far we presently can't seem to go to be our best selves.
