Is King Still King?

Dr. Martin Luther King is definitely still King. I feel that as long as your legacy lives on so do you, and King's ideologies are brought in our era all the time and they are still relevant. Just the other day Whitney Young's niece came to speak to us on show us part of the documentary that she has been working for in dedication to her uncle. In the documentary it shows him working with many civil rights activists, including Dr. Martin Luther King. In the video it was obvious that Whitney Young valued the friendship and the work ethic and methods of King. It was truly moving. I also feel that as we look around today we can still see that he is King by the comparisons that they make between he and others, especially Barack Obama. Having great people say that they admire you and the things you did is a huge honor.
