I am listening to Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s famous speech, in its entirety for the first time, and the words that speak most to me ar those that cross all boundaries of race or color or economic status or religious or political belief, (although here they are applied just to whites and blacks), and for me are the words that define how we will come to heal ourselves and the planet: "...For many of our white brothers...have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny and they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone.
