Restoring MLK’s Dream
BY: George Dunlap. I remember April 4, 1968 well, the day Dr. King was killed. I just turned 13 years old the week before. I was in 8th grade, Cutler Ridge Jr High School, Cutler Ridge, Florida.

My father told me that God, created us all, in his vision, and we were to always be kind. As I read Eduarado J. Echeverria post below, I relived that time of the school segregation challenges and the death of Dr. King. It was a very troubled time and by the grace of God we worked hard to build a better community. I remember Dr. King and the times well, I will not forget.
