The Poverty Dr. King Spoke About Exactly 41 years ago today -Comparison w/ the present
41 Years Ago Today, Dr. King Was Gunned Down. Can you take to heart his last words?

Today is the 41st Anniversary of King's assassination. Below is a link to a free flyer in honor of Dr. King. The global poverty statistics included in the flyer - those in King's time - and those in the present - are shocking. Passing on the information this flyer contains would certainly be an excellent way at both honoring King's vision, and opening others' eyes to the currently still dreadful state of humanity.
**Can you take to heart the words King spoke just 4 days before he was gunned down? That's what this flyer will ask you. Take the King Challenge - in his own words - and see. If King were alive today, he'd tell us to bail out human beings, not banks. He was about to mount a Poor People's Campaign before he was killed. 41 years later and we still need a poor people's campaign.
Here's the link to the King Challenge flyer:
