Martin Luther King Jr.'s Stance on Poverty Often Ignored

[Angiewnsb]

One of King's most central legacies often lost in holiday remembrances is his stance against global poverty and his encouragement for all Americans to learn about and combat it.

Download the free 2-page inspirational flyer about Martin Luther King Jr. and what he fought for in this exact regard here http://tinyurl.com/9una9n & distribute it to as many people as you can while people have King on their minds since the King holiday is this coming Monday the 19th.

Review the GLOBAL poverty statistics mentioned in the flyer- comparing those in King's time - to those in the present. This is an excellent way to open people's eyes to the still dreadful state of humanity. The flyer asks whether you "can take to heart the words King spoke just four days
before he was gunned down".

2. MLK said poverty would be harder to "solve" than racism....he was right.

Wish I had seen this in time to get the recs up higher!

4. Glad people are finally starting to bring this up

He got it in so many ways: how they keep us down by making sure we keep busy hating each other.
