It's
a
bit
of
housekeeping
our
mayor
will
acknowledge
all
of
the
elected
and
appointed
officials
at
a
later
time
when
he
is
doing
his
remarks
following
today's
speaker
also
like
to
draw
your
attention
to
the
rear
of
the
facility
for
those
persons
who
are
in
need
of
registered
registration
to
vote.
The
men
of
Vegas
off
I
have
a
voter
registration
table
there
and
you
can
visit
them
in
the
rear.
Additionally,
there
are
local
artists
who
have
their
wares
here,
so
please
take
an
opportunity
to
visit
with
them
before
you
leave
today.
I.
F
Am
honored
to
lend
my
voice
and
my
presence
to
today's
activities.
Admittedly,
it
is
a
small
voice.
Having
heard
the
measured
and
effective
words
that
have
changed
the
world
that
our
dear
brother,
great
dr.,
Martin,
Luther,
King
jr.
has
done
today.
We
honor
dr.
King
by
recognizing
one
of
his
greatest
accomplishments.
F
F
Gospel
music
has
always
been
a
mainstay
of
the
african-american
experience
and
as
melodiously
conveyed
the
struggle
and
the
hope
to
surmount
obstacles.
Mahalia
Jackson,
deemed
the
queen
of
gospel,
render
two
songs
before
urging
dr.
King
to
tell
them
about
the
dream.
Martin
here
today
to
sing
two
songs:
are
miss
Beverly,
Hammond
singing
how
I
got
over
and
mrs.
Karen
Ronald
Thompson
singing
I've
been
buked
and
I've
been
scorned.
A
A
A
A
A
H
H
He
thrived
at
a
segregated,
high
school
graduating
at
fifteen
before
heading
off
to
Morehouse
College.
He
then
dedicated
three
years
to
theological
study
at
Crozier
Seminary
in
Pennsylvania,
while
earning
his
graduate
degree
at
Boston
University.
He
met
Coretta
Scott,
who
he
would
marry
and
have
four
children
with
King
and
his
family
settled
in
Montgomery
Alabama
when
he
became
the
20th
pastor
of
the
Dexter
Avenue
Baptist
Church,
when
Rosa
Parks
was
arrested
for
refusing
to
relinquish
her
seat
to
a
white
man
on
a
Montgomery
City
bus
in
1955.
H
Kings
experience,
passion
for
the
cause
and
position
in
the
community
gave
him
the
credentials
to
become
a
leader
in
the
381
day,
boycott
of
the
city,
buses
on
December,
20th
1956,
the
Supreme
Court
ruled
segregated
buses
to
be
unconstitutional.
This
was
a
major
victory
for
the
civil
rights
cause
and
proved
King's.
Nonviolent
methods
of
protest
could
yield
results.
H
King
was
now
the
national
face
of
the
civil
rights
cause
he
was
jailed
over
20
times
was
once
stabbed
in
the
chest.
His
house
was
bombed
and
he
suffered
relentless
personal
attacks
on
himself
and
his
family.
For
a
man
of
peaceful
intentions,
he
unfortunately
spent
much
of
his
life
the
target
of
violent
intent,
yet
the
threats
never
stopped
him.
J
H
Worked
tirelessly
to
promote
the
cause
he
so
strongly
believed
in
and
from
1957
through
1968.
He
traveled
over
six
million
miles
delivered.
2,500
speeches
wrote
five
books
and
dozens
of
articles,
his
hard
work
and
ability
to
communicate,
earned
him
such
respect
that
he
earned
the
ear
of
President
John
F
Kennedy,
who
personally
met
with
king.
H
Of
all
the
speeches
King
delivered
known,
has
stood
the
test
of
time,
like
his
famous
I,
have
a
dream
speech
symbolically
delivered
from
the
steps
of
the
Lincoln
Memorial
in
1963
in
front
of
250,000
people.
Both
black
and
white
King
had
become
such
a
force
in
America
that
he
was
named
Time
Magazine's
Man
of
the
Year
in
1963
the
nice
achievement
indeed,
but
it
paled
in
comparison
when
in
1964
he
became
the
youngest
man
ever
to
win
the
Nobel
Peace
Prize
Martin
Luther
King
jr.
J
H
While
in
Memphis
to
lead
a
protest
march,
defending
the
rights
of
striking
garbage
workers
in
April
of
1968
King
delivered
a
rousing
speech,
titled
I've
been
to
the
mountaintop.
It
would
be
his
last
standing
on
the
balcony
of
his
second
floor
room
at
the
Lorraine
Motel
in
Memphis
King
was
shot
and
killed.
H
F
F
Josephine
Baker,
though
not
on
the
official
program,
was
the
only
female
speaker
in
addition
to
miss
Baker
others
who
were
not
on
the
official
program
raised
their
voices
to
support
the
plight
of
the
jobless
and
otherwise
disenfranchised
musical
groups
like
Peter,
Paul
and
Mary
brought
their
music
to
the
audience.
Many
people
spoke
and
the
music
played
folk
songs
like
blowin
in
the
wind.
Please
greet
dr.
Carlos
Weis,
accompanied
by
mr.
John
Skinner,
as
he
sings
the
Bob
Dylan
folk
song
blowin
in
the
wind.
K
How
many
years
can
a
mountain
exist
before
it
is
blown
into
the
sea
and
how
many
years
must
people
exist
before
they're
allowed
to
be
free
and
how
many
times
must
a
man
turn
his
head?
I
pretend
that
he
just
doesn't
see
the
answer.
My
friend
it's
blowing
in
the
wind
and
it's
blowin
in
the
wind.
K
F
The
sound
system
that
day
was
capable
of
being
heard
throughout
the
mall
and
organizers
had
been
willing
to
pay
as
much
as
twenty
thousand
dollars
there's
ten
times
more
than
what
sound
systems
cost
at
that
time.
To
ensure
that
sound
was
heard
the
evening
before
the
March
saboteurs
destroyed
the
system
which
had
to
be
rebuilt
by
the
Army
Signal
Corps
of
Engineers.
F
Despite
the
challenges
of
the
day,
the
sound
system
resonantly
played
the
music.
That
was
the
backdrop
to
the
power
of
the
movement.
Undaunted
the
event
went
on
Marian
Anderson,
delayed
and
unable
to
sing
the
national
anthem
anthem
that
day
led
the
throngs
of
people
assembled
in
a
rousing.
Rendition
of
he's
got
the
whole
world
in
his
hands
following
dr.
King's
Speech.
To
commemorate
that
event,
please
welcome
mrs.
Sonia
Roberts
singing
that
familiar
saw.
A
F
Want
to
share
just
a
little
bit
about
him,
but
before
that
talk
about
how
the
march
on
Washington
affected
him
and
brought
him
to
this
place,
the
1963
march
on
Washington
was
a
peaceful
demonstration.
Call
it
for
Jobs
and
Freedom.
Dr.
King
did
not
use
the
words
economic,
empowerment
specifically
and
the
words
he
espoused
that
day.
The
freedoms
for
which
he
fought
were
the
result
in
his
people
prospering
whether
employee
or
employer.
F
Today,
our
speaker
as
someone
who
can
speak
today,
mr.
William
Picard
born
on
january
2,
28th
1941
in
LaGrange
Georgia,
someone
who
has
written
books
on
economic
empowerment
and
the
freedom
of
what
it
means
to
have
and
create
and
choose
your
own
jobs,
a
chairman
of
global
automotive
alliance,
Cole,
managing
partner
of
MGM,
Grand,
Detroit,
casino,
CEO
of
Burwood
management,
company
and
co-owner
of
five
black
owned
newspapers.
Our
speaker
is
equipped
to
tell
us
a
few
things
about
positioning
ourselves
to
build
wealth.
F
L
Thank
you.
Thank
you
good
morning,
oh
by
the
way,
where
is
sister
robbers
honey,
you
put
your
foot
in
that
thing.
Let's
give
her
another
round
of
applause.
God
bless
you
I,
don't
know
about
your
pastor,
but
I
might
come
back
to
Columbus
to
hear
you
sang
one
morning
come
on
down
good
morning
good
afternoon
afternoon.
Now
how
you
doing
mr.
mayor,
listen.
L
L
You
guys
listen,
my
name
is
Bill
Picard
and
it's
so
good
to
be
close
to
home
I'm
from
The
Grange
Georgia.
Anybody
ever
heard
about
LaGrange
Georgia
yeah.
Well,
you
see
there's
an
advantage
to
coming
home
because
in
Detroit
and
New
York
in
California,
the
first
thing
somebody
asks
you
where
is
LaGrange
Georgia
I
said
well,
look.
If
you
had
majored
in
geography,
you
would
know
where
LaGrange
Georgia
is.
But
since
you
did
not
major
in
geography,
let
me
tell
you
where
LaGrange
Georgia
is
LaGrange.
L
Georgia
is
30
minutes
from
Atlanta
Georgia
by
telephone
yeah,
so
they
get
it.
But
no,
it's
always
indeed
a
pleasure
to
be
home.
Mr.
mayor
and
I
want
to
just
commend
you
for
being
newly
installed
as
mayor
and
had
the
wisdom
to
still
make
this
day
an
important
day
and
I
want
to
thank
the
gentleman
for
the
kind
introduction,
and
obviously
you
know
by
now
that
when
you're
from
the
grange
you've
been
to
columbus
many
times
growing
up-
and
this
is
a
special
place
for
me-
I
was
telling
the
officer
officer
grant.
Where
is
he?
L
L
Now
most
people
know
reference
to
dr.
King
for
the
tremendous
civil
rights
human
right
leader
that
he
was,
and
he
was
that,
but
the
next
10
or
15
minutes
I
want
to
share
with
you
his
journey
because
he
went
from
civil
rights,
civi
L
to
silver,
right,
Silv,
er
money
at
that
in
his
life.
He
was
talking
about.
How
do
we
help
people
have
a
decent
life,
a
decent
wage
and
remember
he
died
fighting
for
garbage
men
to
get
a
better
pay,
but
I
must
tell
you.
L
He
told
you
that
I
am
the
co
managing
partner
of
the
MGM
casino
in
Detroit.
Now
I'm
from
the
Grange
and
my
mama
is
a
sho'nuff
Baptist
woman
and
my
mama
called
me
up.
Saying
boy:
have
you
lost
your
mind
drinking
and
gambling
and
dancing
in
a
casino,
she's,
yo
granddaddy,
with
turn
over
in
his
grave?
If
he
knew
you
was
involved
with
gambling
and
dancing
and
Nicky?
Wasn't
mother
now
wait
a
minute.
It's
not
like
that
anymore.
L
These
are
nice
casinos
where
people
can
come
and
enjoy
themselves
and
have
dinner,
and
all
that
and
all
that
she's
I,
don't
care.
It's
tainted
money,
no
matter
what
you
say.
It's
tainted
money.
I
said
my
dear
I'm
gonna
tell
you
what
granddaddy
said
the
only
thing
wrong
with
tainted
money
taint
enough
of
it.
You
know
so
I
have
to
kind
of
watch
that
when
I
come
home
you
know
because
this
is
home
by
the
way.
You
know
somebody
said
well
pic
art.
How
did
you
get
down
here?
Well,
what
happened?
Well.
A
L
Gotta
be
honest,
you
know,
unfortunately,
you
know
I
wish
I
was
six
feet
to
Denzel
Washington,
but
I.
Here's
what
I,
here's
I
gotta
tell
you.
You
know:
I
got
a
phone
call
Bob
right
bill.
What's
going
on
watch
it
I
said
man
I'm
sitting
here
in
Florida
in
my
home,
looking
at
the
water
I,
don't
play
golf
so
I'm
reading
a
book.
What's
up
pick,
you
got
to
come
to
Columbus
what,
as
the
man
is
one
a
time
I'm
not
gonna
leave
Florida,
he
said
well,
do
you
still
believe
in
free
speech?
L
I
said
free
speech?
That's
it!
Everybody
believes
in
free
speech
Bob.
What
are
you
talking
about
said?
Do
you
believe
in
free
speech?
I
said
yes,
I
do
he
said
well
if
you
believe
in
free
speech
being
Columbus
on
Saturday
January
19th
and
give
a
free
speech,
so
he
is
okay,
I'm
here
I'm
here
waiting
that
Bob
is
in
Hawaii
or
somewhere
flying
around
world
of
this
private
jet.
You
know
these
probably
know
Calvin
I,
love,
Calvin's
might
he's
a
good
state
represent
now
bill.
You
be
sure.
Let
people
know
I
was
gonna.
L
Be
that
with
you
to
greet
you
and
be
there
with
you,
but
I'm
in
Atlanta
with
the
King
family
I
said
the
King
family
I
said:
can
they
vote
for
you?
He
said.
Neither
can
you
so
on
the
other
way,
but
I'm
glad
to
be
here.
My
boss,
here
I,
had
the
pleasure
teaching
at
Alabama
State
and
my
boss,
dr.
booth,
who
resides
in
Columbus
Wade
dr.
booth.
That's
my
boss!
Okay
quickly,
now,
ironically
I'm
an
I'm,
an
elderly
gentleman,
I've
been
very
blessed.
L
I
know,
I,
look
good,
I
smell,
good
and
I'm
up
to
good
things.
You
know,
but
I
was
in
Washington
DC
during
the
march
on
Washington,
as
a
young
man
and
I
had
the
blessings
when
I
was
19
years
of
age
to
meet
dr.
King
as
a
student
I
later
met
him
many
many
other
times
when
I
worked
for
the
n-double-a-cp
in
Cleveland,
Ohio
and
I
was
thinking
about
this,
because
there
was
a
time
that
was
a
company
in
America
called
silt
s,
milk
and
ice
cream
and
every
Saturday
morning.
L
They
would
have
this
thing
called
the
big
top
on
team.
Now,
y'all
young
folks,
yeah
I,
don't
know
what
I'm
talking
about,
but
some
of
y'all
do
and
dr.
King
was
boycotting
Sealtest
and
I
had
the
pleasure
getting
to
know
him
reasonably
well
as
a
young
man.
So
today,
let's
spend
a
moment
talking
about
the
journey
of
dr.
Martin,
Luther
King
jr.
L
from
civil
rights,
civi
L
to
silver,
Silv
er
right
now,
I,
don't
want
y'all
to
meet
none
of
my
cousin's
in
LaGrange
on
dancing,
listen,
y'all,
cousin
came
down
and
just
talked
about
money,
money,
money
and
dr.
King
and
money
money.
Money
I
want
to
make
it
crystal
clear.
Money
is
not
my
god,
but
I
do
put
it
up
with
oxygen
and
water
and
breathing.
L
You
know
so
don't
say
that,
but
I
must
tell
you
first
of
all,
that
the
journey
of
civil
rights
to
what
I
will
call
economic
empowerment,
is
a
wonderful
and
when
you
look
at
the
history
of
the
last
7080
years
in
America
and
there's
no
secret
that
dr.
King
gave
his
life
working
for
the
least
of
God's
children,
the
garbage
man
in
Memphis
Tennessee.
It
is
no
secret
that
dr.
King
was
planning
or
poor
people's
March
on
Washington.
L
So
the
point
is
dr.:
King
was
getting
into
the
notion
that
all
of
God's
children
have
an
in
right
to
a
decent
life,
financially
independence
to
take
care
of
their
families,
etc.
That's
where
he
was
headed
and,
of
course,
I
think
that
is
the
essence
of
life
that
each
one
of
us
has
a
god-given
ability
to
become
and
to
be
much
greater
than
we
ever
imagined.
There's
no
limitations.
What
anyone
in
this
room
cannot
achieve
black
white,
rich
or
poor,
I'm
from
the
grains,
Georgia
and
I
know
what
God
can
do.
L
There's
no
question
in
my
mind
and
I'm
like
jay-z
I
got
99
problems,
but
money
ain't.
One
up.
You
know
what
I
mean
so
I.
Don't
apologize
for
this,
but
I
want
you
to
understand
this
journey
and
how
each
and
every
one
else
have
a
responsibility
to
take
care
on
families
to
assist
in
any
way.
We
can
and
then
to
help
the
community
and
help
our
fellow
man
and
woman,
because
none
of
us
as
great
as
you
think
you
are
and
as
great
as
you
are.
L
None
of
us
got
to
this
place
by
ourselves
we're
standing
on
the
shoulders,
a
good
people
who
made
a
way
out
of
no
way
and
I
must
point
this
out.
Dr.
King
came
to
this
town
July
1st
1958,
because
a
leading
black
doctor
had
been
assassinated
in
this
town,
and
this
tells
you
how
progress
is
made.
Even
the
black
churches
did
not
want
dr.
King
to
speak
that
night
from
their
pulpit
because
they
were
concerned
about
the
things
that
could
happen
to
that
church
once
he
left.
L
So
he
went
to
the
Prince
Hall
Mason's
and
gave
a
great
speech
so
I
want
you
to
understand
that
dr.
King
wasn't
always
loved
by
black
folks
or
white
folks,
because
he
was
talking
about
what
change
and
then
when
he
started
talking
about
change
and
economic
justice,
it
got
even
more
complicated
for
him
but
I'm
blessed
to
tell
you
that
I'm,
a
beneficiary
of
the
things
that
dr.
L
King
worked
for
and
prayed
for,
because
my
life
is
reflective
of
that
magic
moment
in
America,
when
black
folks
and
white
folks
came
together
to
help
the
least
of
God's
children,
people
oftentimes
said
to
me
well
pickhardt.
Why
did
you
go
to
college
to
be
a
social
worker?
I
mean
you
know
why
you'd
be
a
doctor
or
lawyer.
I
said
I'm
surprised.
You
would
ask
me
that
question
we've
been
talking
for
three
minutes
and
you
know
I
couldn't
pass
chemistry
or
England.
L
So
I
became
a
social
worker,
but,
as
my
grandfather
was
saying,
it's
God
was
saying
it's
not
where
you
are
it's
where
you
going
and
so
I
shared
my
quick
story
with
you
about
America
to
let
you
know
that
all
things
are
possible
and
he
that
believeth
in
himself
and
herself
all
things
are
possible
and
I
don't
need
to
tell
you
who
the
essence
of
my
life
is
because
I
hope
and
pray
that
he's
also
the
essence
of
your
life.
But
let
me
tell
you
quickly
where
we
are
now
just
think
about
this.
Dr.
L
King
was
assassinated
fifty
fifty-one
years
ago.
This
country
is
in
many
regards
worse
today
than
it
was
then,
but
look
what
has
happened
to
black
America
we've
elected
a
black
president
twice.
We
now
have
three
black
United
States
senators.
We
have
dozens
of
United
state
representatives
in
Congress
and
what
I'm
proud
of
we
have
black
billionaires
money
talk
walks.
Okay,
this
is
America
and
I
happen
to
know
a
couple
of
those
billionaires
and
I'm.
Just
gonna.
Take
a
couple
of
minutes
and
tell
you
about
that
journey.
L
Not
because
money
is
everything,
but
because
it
gives
you
an
idea
that
this
young
lady
right
here
can
come
and
achieve
anything.
She
desires
in
life,
and
you
know
these
names
pretty
good.
What's
first,
one
is
a
woman.
Oprah
now
think
about
this
girl
born
poor,
mom
and
dad
is
separated,
grew
up
in
a
single
household
kind
of
chubby
ain't
light
and
damn
near
white.
You
know
get
on
TV.
She
doesn't
do
well.
L
They
shift
her
from
one
city
to
another
city
because
they
don't
think
she
has
that
x-factor
on
the
TV
camera
and
they
ship
her
to
Chicago
Illinois,
where
they
think
that
will
be
the
end
of
her
life
in
her
career
as
a
TV
personality
and
then
God
stepped
in
and
in
over
one
got
a
groove
and
now,
as
you
know,
better
than
I
she's,
a
billionaire
in
America
and
she
started
out
with
literally
nothing.
But
that's
not
the
exciting
part
about
it.
L
The
exciting
part
about
this
she's
helped
folk,
black,
white,
blue
and
green
African
Asian
around
the
world.
So
remember
it
ain't
where
you
start
it's
where
you're
going,
but
then
has
another
letter.
You
know
about
name
madam
CJ
Walker
now
she's
my
Shiro
now
madam
CJ
Walker
was
born
two
years
after
slavery
in
1867
and
this
woman's
stories
remarkable
now.
I
know
you
know
she
could
do
hell.
I
know
you
know
she
became
a
millionaire,
but
here's
what
I
want
to
tell
you.
She
was
married
at
13.
She
was
a
mother
at
15.
L
She
was
a
widow
at
17
and
was
a
millionaire
at
39.
No
education,
no
SBA
loan.
No
lord,
have
mercy
programs.
She
said
I
got
my
start
by
giving
myself
a
start.
This
is
what
happens
in
America.
This
is
what
happened
when
good
people
in
black
and
white,
rich
and
poor
come
together
to
invest
in
our
people,
but
the
other
billionaire
is
my
new
hero.
L
Now
I
got
to
ask
y'all
a
question
now
I,
remember
I'm
from
the
greens,
and
we
can
be
straight
how
many
people
here
have
heard
of
a
billionaire
named
Robert
L
Smith
come
on
now
a
billionaire,
a
black
man
finished
six
years
old,
named
Robert
F
Smith
come
on
y'all
I'm
gonna
come
now,
I
need
Columbus,
cudeman,
some
and
start
teaching
well
quickly.
Robert
F
Smith
is
a
black
man,
he's
worth
about
six
billion
dollars,
he's
from
Denver
Colorado.
He
went
to
Cornell
University.
L
He
was
a
major
in
chemistry,
became
a
chemical
engineer
across
here
pledged
a
fire
egg
but,
more
importantly,
he
went
back
to
Columbus
University
and
got
his
MBA.
He
now
is
a
CEO
chairman
and
founder
of
a
company
called
Vista
equities
come
on
y'all.
If
I
talk
about
jay-z
and
Beyonce
I'll
know
who
I'm
talking
about
Robert
L
Smith
get
your
phones
out.
Google
him
try
to
get
to
know
him,
try
to
marry
his
daughter
or
something
you
know
come
on
now.
L
L
We
were
best
middle-class
people
who
were
schoolteachers,
he
said,
but
every
month
my
mother
did
one
thing
she
sent
$50
to
the
United
Negro
College
Fund,
and
he
said
that's.
Why
I
proud
to
say
today
that
I'm,
given
30
million
dollars
to
the
unit
Negro
College
Fund
Robert
F
Smith?
You
ought
to
know
that
name.
You
ought
to
tell
your
grandchildren,
your
children
about
it,
your
neighbors,
your
white
friends,
your
black
friend,
because
it
tells
you
one
thing
that
excellence
excellence.
L
It's
superior
to
all
these
other
isms
that
we
like
to
talk
about,
but
I
bought
you
with
him,
because
I
want
to
tell
you
about
another
lady
we're
talking
about
the
business
of
America,
the
things
that
dr.
King
emerged
into
now.
I
wish
I
looked
like
Denzel
Washington,
but
I,
don't
I
wish
I
had
born
with
a
mom
and
daddy
who
had
money,
but
that
ain't.
What
God
gave
me
I'm
kind
of
like
this
lady
that
came
from
Mississippi?
Her
name
was
Lillian
Harris
har.
L
Is
she
arrived
in
New
York
in
1919,
no
education
weighing
about
200
pounds
and
she
said
law
I'm
glad
to
get
out
of
Mississippi,
but
I
don't
want
to
work
in
white
folks
kitchens!
No
more
I
want
to
do
something
on
my
own
Lillian
Harris
Dean
get
your
phones
out.
You
got
a
Google.
This
this
ain't,
the
n-double-a-cp-
this
is
facts.
Okay,
this
woman
had
five
dollars.
She
bought
her
a
number
ten
took
y'all
to
Jung,
know
one
another,
some
of
y'all
she
bought
a
number
ten
tub.
L
She
bought
a
baby
carriage
cut
the
bottom
out
of
it
and
put
some
charcoals
in
it
and
went
to
a
place
in
Harlem
called
a
hundred
and
thirty
fifth
and
Linux,
and
she
starts
selling
pig
feet,
hog,
maws,
chitlins
and
greens,
one
hundred
and
thirty
fifteen
Linux.
If
you,
google,
her
name
is
Lillian
Harris
Dean,
but
she
became
known
as
pig
foot
Mary,
but
the
real
shot
here
is
that
pig
foot
Mary
was
so
successful.
Shielding
up
to
long
put
from
pig
feet
stands
and
in
1929
the
New
York
Times
did
a
story
on
her.
L
Now
she
only
went
to
New
York
in
1919.
Ten
years
later,
in
today's
world,
her
property,
the
home
she
had
bought
the
money
she
had
was
equivalent
today
to
fifteen
point,
four
million
dollars
is
God
able
cooking
pig
feet.
So
I
bore
you
with
these
stories
to
tell
you
that
dr.
King
was
on
the
right
track
and
every
one
of
us
have
to
understand
that
the
business
of
America
is
business.
Now
I'm
gonna
close
up
by
giving
you
some
facts
and
I
know.
L
Y'all
gonna
run
me
back
to
the
grains,
but
I
ain't
going
to
LaGrange
up
going
to
Florida,
okay.
But
here
where
we
are,
we
got
this
black
president.
We
got
these
black
US
senators,
but
our
economy,
the
money
that
we
get
every
first
of
the
month,
the
15th
of
the
month,
every
Friday
and
Saturday
as
a
country,
all
the
black
people
in
this
country
have
an
income
coming
in
of
about
1.3
trillion
dollars.
L
L
We
die
poor
and
we
make
everybody
else
rich
in
between
what
is
that
what's
going
on
now,
the
good
news
is
this:
we
have
black
folks
now,
who
are
doing
almost
anything
you
can
think
of
University
of
Michigan
last
week
had
a
black
young
lady
27
years
of
age,
graduate
with
a
PhD
in
physics.
Now
I
can't
even
spell
mathematics.
She
had
a
PhD
in
physics,
so
all
these
things
are
possible,
but
we
gotta
find
a
way
to
capture
some
of
that
money
that
comes
in
our
community.
L
For
this
Columbus
were
this
Chicago,
whether
it's
Detroit
of
New
York,
the
challenge
is,
is
saying
we
get
paid
on
Friday
in
the
white
community.
The
dollar
circulates
about
13
times
before
it
goes
out
in
the
Jewish
community.
It
circulates
about
twenty
four
times
before
it
goes
out
in
the
Asian
community.
The
money
turns
over
thirty
times
before
it
goes
out
in
our
community.
L
It
stays
seven
hours,
five
six
seven
hours.
We
cannot
become
an
independent
people
when
we
keep
using
dependent
thinking,
we
must
change
it
and
it
doesn't
start
with
them.
It
doesn't
start
with
her.
It
starts
with
each
one
of
us:
I
know
how
difficult
it
is,
some
time
to
find
out
a
black
store
that
does
this
or
does
that,
but
every
little
bit
helps.
But
the
good
news
is
this:
we
now
help
people
in
businesses
and
doing
things
that
we
never
thought
about.
L
Google,
that
brother
Robert
F
Smith
and
see
some
of
the
things
and
companies
that
he
owns
and
things
that
he's
doing.
I
am
conscious
about
where
I
spend
my
money.
I
am
very
conscious
about
where
I
spend
my
money
when
I
go
to
the
Urban
League
and
N
double
AC
convention,
I'm
looking
around
and
see
who
are
the
sponsors
and
if
I
see
a
company
that
sponsor
something
that
I
buy.
L
That's
where
I
want
to
buy
from,
because
I
make
it
an
investment
in
them
because
they're
making
an
investment
in
my
community
and
we
all
can
do
a
better
job
of
this
as
I
go
to
my
seat.
I
have
good
news:
I
have
spent
I
have
a
book
out.
Everybody
write
down
the
name
of
my
book.
It's
called
millionaire
moves.
Mr.
mayor
millionaire
moves
is
about
a
black
book.
L
A
young
black
boy
from
the
grains
Georgia,
who
grew
up
like
a
lot
of
people,
grow
up
poor
but
hungry
and
thirsty
for
knowledge
and
for
an
opportunity
and
I
got
99
problems,
but
money
ain't,
one
of
them,
so
I
wrote
a
book
called
millionaire
moves
and
what
I'm
so
excited
about.
I've
been
on
more
than
60
college
campuses,
some
blacks,
some
white,
and
we
got
a
cadre
of
young
black
men
and
women
who
are
ready.
L
They
are
ready
to
come
out
in
America
and
do
good
and
take
care
of
themselves
and
take
care
of
their
families,
and
you
got
to
help
us
and
the
best
way
you
could
help
is
the
first
of
all
take
your
own
family.
When
you
get
on
the
airline.
What
do
they
say
in
case
of
the
loss
of
power
and
their
plane?
The
first
thing
you
do
is
put
your
own
mask
on.
L
Then
you
help
someone
else,
so
we
must
become
examples
to
our
young
people
into
our
grandchildren
into
our
community
about
what
we
can
do,
and
you
know
what
I
feel
good
about
this
look
at
this
town
called
Columbus.
You
produce
some
great
people,
you
got
a
mayor
here,
who's
been
in
office
two
days
or
two
weeks.
He
still
say
we
gotta
have
Martin
Luther,
King
Day
and
it
and
I
think
that's
pretty
good
Thank
You
mr.
L
L
Networking
now
I,
don't
get
hung
up
on
trying
to
be
this
or
that
to
anybody.
If
I'm
gonna
tell
you
something,
if
you
don't
network,
you
might
not
work,
you
got
to
have
friends
and
loved
ones,
and
everywhere
you
go
well
I,
don't
probably
overstayed.
My
welcome
I
probably
done
messed
up
the
mayor's
remarks
and
everything
else,
but
before
I
go
to
my
seat.
L
I
do
want
to
say
this
that
these
towns,
like
Lagrange
and
Columbus
and
Montgomery
we
we
are
doing
pretty
good,
but
we
can
do
better,
but
I
want
you
some
time
to
just
think
about
your
grandparents
and
what
they
had
to
go
through
in
these
towns.
Just
think
how
life
was
for
them
in
1920,
in
1930,
in
1940,
when
I
think
about
what
my
granddad
and
my
grandmother
had
to
go
through.
I
get
mad
at
myself,
because
I
could
have
done
more.
I
could
do
better
because
they
made
two
ultimate
sacrifice.
L
In
1920,
that
was
an
organization
called
the
Georgia
Negro
Teachers
Association
in
1920
they
had
their
convention
at
Fort,
Valley,
State,
College
and
Fort
Valley
Georgia,
and
they
passed
a
resolution
that
every
school
teacher
and
every
school
principal
was
gonna
teach
the
essence
of
democracy.
About
voting
and
the
political
process.
They
were
going
to
tell
their
students
about
the
Democratic
Party
in
the
Republican
Party
and
the
importance
of
voting
1928.
They
couldn't
vote,
they
couldn't
register,
but
somebody
said
we
must
prepare
for
the
future
and
they
did
so
don't
tell
me
ever
again
about
YouTube.
L
Is
it
doesn't
matter?
Ain't
got
time
to
go
vote
because
your
grandmama
and
your
granddaddy,
laying
in
their
graves,
hoping
and
praying
that
this
day
would
come
and
we
have
a
responsibility
to
make
them
as
best
of
it.
So
I'll
go
to
my
seat
I'm.
Just
asking
one
thing:
do
your
best
and
God
will
do
the
rest.
Thank
you.
F
M
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you,
man,
what
an
amazing
amazing
event
and
dr.
Picard,
so
Wow
man,
oh
man,
oh
man,
you
know
your
remarks
were
so
timely.
The
the
mayor's
Commission
on
unity
and
diversity,
actually
over
the
last
few
years,
has
added
prosperity,
because
it's
imperative
that
we
try
to
create
economic
equality
within
Columbus
and
Georgia,
and
the
United
States
of
America
as
well.
So
thank
you,
sir
and
I
do
have
somewhere
a
gift
that
Miss
Judy
Tucker.
M
M
No,
we
do.
We
just
wait
in.
Please
give
dr.
Picard
one
more
round
of
applause
and
I
know
you
belong
to
Lagrange,
but
we're
gonna
claim
you
it's
part
of
the
region.
If
you
don't
mind
and
I'd
make,
you
bet
that
all
these
people
that
didn't
know
where
the
grains
was
before
you
spoke-
knew
where
it
was
when
you
finished.
Thank
you
so
much
for
joining
us
in
Columbus
Georgia.
Thank
you,
sir.
Thank
you
and
I'm
gonna
make
Judy
stand
here
for
just
a
second
it's
dr.
picard
mentioned.
I
think
it
was
at
november.
M
I
received
an
email
said:
hey,
are
you
going
to
continue
the
the
dream,
lives,
commemoration
and
event?
I
said?
Well,
of
course
we
are.
Why
would
we
not-
and
there
was
no
response
and
I
said,
wait
a
minute
whose
responsibility
is
yours,
so
I
did
what
any
natural
leader
would
have
done.
I
immediately
took
charge
and
delegated
actually
I
placed
a
call
to
Judy
and
I
said.
M
She
finally
relented
and
agreed
to
chair
this,
and
let
me
tell
you
how
difficult
that
was
this
year.
She
actually
planned
this
event
with
her
committee
two
times,
because
we
planned
it
as
an
outdoor
event
with
vendors
and
kid
activities
and
a
processional
and
mother
nature
decided
to
show
who's
really
in
charge,
and
so
she
had
a
plan
it
again
her
and
her
committee,
who
will
will
be
recognized
individually
later,
did
such
an
amazing
job
at
putting
this
all
together,
adapting
and
and
John
Dorman
and
his
crew.
M
M
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
We
are.
We
are
so
grateful
and
before
I
before
I
do
have
a
few
little
remarks
that
I'm
gonna
make,
but
before
I
do
that
I'm
gonna,
I'm
gonna,
say
some
thank
yous,
because
you
know
and
I
hate
doing
this
because
I
know
I'm
gonna
end
up
missing
some
people,
so
Judy's
gonna
help
me
as
we
kind
of
go
through
this
first
of
all
also
want
to
thank
Norman
Hardman
Norman
Hartman
is
here.
He
is
the
chairperson
for
the
mayor's
Commission
on
unity,
diversity
and
prosperity.
M
M
We
also
want
to
thank
John
Dorman
for
his
quick
and
decisive
action,
as
we
were
trying
to
put
this
together.
They
had
a
huge
event
last
night
and
and
and
they
were
were
awesome
at
trying
to
get
that
get
that
turned
around
I
also
want
to
thank
who
I
think
is
probably
the
best
city
manager
and
state
of
Georgia
Isaiah
hugely.
Has
them.
M
We
do
have
the
police
chief
here.
He
and
his
law
enforcement
officers
have
been
supportive
at
all
of
the
dream,
lives
events
and
we
also
have
from
the
school
district
I
know:
David
Lewis,
the
school
superintendent
is
here
and
Pat
Hughley
green
school
board
member
and,
if
I
missed
anybody
blame
it
on
my
lack
of
intelligence,
not
my
lack
of
caring,
raise
your
hand,
I
miss
any
other
elected
officials.
M
Well,
thank
you
and
most
of
all
last,
but
certainly
most
important
I
want
to.
Thank
you.
I
want
to
thank
the
citizens
of
this,
the
this
by
City
area
for
being
here
today
the
weather
got
a
little
dicey,
you
raved
the
weather
and
came
out
and
helped
us
celebrate
the
life
and
the
legacy
of
Martin
Luther
King
jr.
today,
and
we
do
it
for
you,
we
do
it
with
you
and
we
do
it
because
of
you.
So
thank
you
so
much
couple
of
very
very
brief
remarks.
M
I
actually
had
prepared
remarks,
I'm,
not
good
at
that,
because
if
I
start
reading
them
I
lose
my
place
and
then
I'm
lost
forever,
but
I
actually
tore
them
up
because,
as
we
went
through
the
events
of
this
morning
and
by
the
way,
I
need
to
thank
big
dog
running
they're,
not
he's
not
here
right
now,
Bob
J's
Wald.
They
did
an
amazing
job
on
the
one
mile
run
in
the
5k
as
well.
M
They
were
not
gonna,
let
the
rain
or
the
weather
or
whatever
storms
came
wash
this
away,
and
it
kind
of
resonated
with
me
that
that's
that's
one
of
the
essences
of
the
legacy
and
the
life
and
the
the
entire
principled
existence
of
dr.
Martin
Luther
King,
and
that
was,
if
you
have
enough
love,
you
will
exhibit
kindness
and
if
you
exhibit
kindness,
you
will
sustain
hope
and
they
were
not
going
to
let
the
love
and
the
kindness
of
this
day
get
washed
away
by
a
storm,
because
storms
come
from
all
angles.
M
M
The
amazing
thing
about
this
community
and
the
people
sitting
here
and
what
we
must
hold
on
to
is
that
if
we
continue
to
focus
on
our
love
exhibiting
kindness
in
generating
hope,
then
we
can
resend
these
ripples
out,
not
only
through
our
community
but
through
our
state
through
our
country
and
making.
We
can
send
them
around
the
planet.
So
my
charge
to
all
of
you
is
keep
that
in
your
heart
and
now
and
I
will
I
will
acknowledge
and
for
some
of
the
young
people
this
is
going
to
be
a
heartbreaking
lesson.
M
Love
is
not
an
emotion.
Love
is
not
an
emotion,
it's
not
a
state
of
mind,
love's,
a
muscle,
and
if
you
don't
exercise
that
muscle
you
will
lose
it.
But
a
really
neat
thing
happens
if
you
exercise
it
enough,
it
grows
and
it
gets
bigger.
So
my
charge
to
y'all
is
in
in
keeping
with
the
legacy
of
dr.
Martin,
Luther
King
jr.
to
exercise
your
love
show
kindness
and,
let's
continue
to
create
hope.
Thank
you
guys
so
much
for
being
here
today.
God
bless.
N
Lord
everybody
wake
up
in
here.
Some
of
you
were
sleeping
I
know
you
work,
wake
up,
wake
up!
Look
at
your
neighbour!
Look
at
your
neighbour!
Tell
him
I
choose
to
unify.
Look
at
your
neighbour
come
on!
Do
it
with
me!
Look
at
your
neighbour,
I
choose
to
unify,
tell
them
that
I
choose
to
unify
my
brothers
and
sisters.
We
can
only
snap
out
in
the
darkness
of
division
if
we
choose
to
unify
the
Lord.
N
Jesus
Christ
is
a
good
god
and
he
says
to
us:
you
have
a
job
to
do
at
Prospect,
AME
Church,
where
I'm
the
pastor
bull
barber.
We
are
so
thankful
to
have
the
opportunity
to
let
you
know
that
we're
on
the
job
and
we
are
gonna-
tell
it
we're
gonna,
go
to
the
grocery
store,
we're
gonna
go
to
the
gas
station,
we're
gonna
go
to
the
restaurants
and
we're
gonna
tell
it
sister
Ruth
Jackson
is
gonna,
come
and
she's
one
of
my
directors
and
she's
gonna
lead.
This
song
join
with
us
in
praise.
