Martin Luther King Jr March in Lafayette

The city of Lafayette and Project YES invite the community to a peace march and rally in honor of Martin Luther King Jr. from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. Monday. The second annual event will start at City Hall. Participants will then march north down South Public Road to Pioneer Elementary School, where there will be reenactments of some of King's most famous speeches by Norma Johnson; a youth "speak out" and musical entertainment.

I've always liked this quote of Dr. King's:
"Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter."

"What matters" is often different for each of us, however if it really matters deeply to me, I want to persuade others to understand the matter as I do, and learn why they may see the matter differently.
