Fellow Philosophers,

Today I felt that I HAD to write about Dr. King—in the US we are celebrating an annual holiday commemorating his legacy.

I began to write a new essay about Dr. King, but felt a piece that I posted a few months ago still captures perfectly the influence he’s had on my training as a philosopher.

Please enjoy the short story below, leave a comment, and share with your friends as we remember American Philosophy’s Greatest Of All Time.
