On the third Monday in January, Americans observe Martin Luther King Jr. Day, reflecting on the assassinated civil-rights leader’s message of nonviolent activism and social equality.
At times, though, it’s all too easy to lose sight of what King accomplished—and what he exhorted his fellow countrymen to do. We tend to get bogged down in the particulars of our own dream for the future—and just like that, we distort his legacy, much as this young visionary has.
