     For Martin Luther King, Jr., Day, I wanted to share some links to reading material.

     - I Have A Dream Speech full text and audio (https://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkihaveadream.htm)
     - Letter from a Birmingham Jail full text (https://www.africa.upenn.edu/Articles_Gen/Letter_Birmingham.html)
     - A Time to Break Silence (https://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkatimetobreaksilence.htm) - I read this speech for the first time last year, and have been thinking about it ever since.
