Somebody posted this in the video's comments, claiming that this portion was cut from his original speech:
"And don't let anybody make you think that God chose America as his divine, messianic force to be a sort of policeman of the whole world. God has a way of standing before the nations with judgment, and it seems that I can hear God saying to America, "You're too arrogant! And if you don't change your ways, I will rise up and break the backbone of your power, and I'll place it in the hands of a nation that doesn't even know my name. Be still and know that I'm God."

When I think of MLKjr I think of this part of one of his speeches.

Appropriate and poignant:

Return of the King
Jericho

I want to say the loud words!

The AIC is CURRENTLY poorly lacking in diversity... especially for a city with a diverse population.

Is it time to bring Affirmative Action into our little bubble??

Yes.

The reason there isn't more diversity in the AIC is definitely because we aren't doing our part, jeff.

Sometimes it's a form of love just to talk to somebody that you have nothing in common with and still be fascinated by their presence.

Exactly, Ceej! If we whites just portray other races, we're golden. Inequality problem solved.
