In Dedication to George Floyd

In dedication to George Floyd

Martin Luther King Jr.

March 1965 Selma, Alabama

“Only way we can really achieve freedom is to somehow hunker the fear of death. But if a man has not discovered something that he will die for, he isn’t fit to live. Deep down in our nonviolent creed is the conviction – that there are some things so dear, some things so precious,  some things so eternally true, that they’re worth dying for. And if a man happens to be 36 years-old, as I happen to be,  some great truth stands before the door of his life –  some great opportunity to stand for that which is right and that which is just. And he refuses to stand up because he wants to live a little longer, and he’s afraid his home will get bombed, or he’ s afraid  that he will lose his job, or he’ s afraid that he will get shot, or beat  down by  state troopers. He may go to live on until he’s 80. He ‘s just as dead at 36 as he would be at 80. And the cessation of  breathing  in his life is merely  the belated announcement of an earlier death of the spirit. He died.

A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right. A man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice. A man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true.

So we’re going to stand up amid horses. We’re going to stand up right here, amid the billy-clubs. We’re going to stand up right here amid police dogs, if they have them. We’re going to stand up amid tear gas!

We’ re going to stand up amid anything they can muster up, letting the world know that we are determined to be free!”
