Character is all. Skin colour is just something you're born with. Recognition of that fact is what King called his Dream.What should we remember on Martin Luther King Day? In his "I Have a Dream" speech Dr. King said: "I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character"...
On Martin Luther King Day--and every day--we should focus on the proper antidote to racism and the proper alternative to racial thinking: individualism. We need to teach our children and all our citizens to look beyond the superficialities of skin color and to judge people on what really matters, namely, "the content of their character."
How about making that Dream a reality here in Enzed?

["I Have a Dream"]
I love that ABBA song "I Have a Dream".
After the way Brash got done over for saying the same thing who would bother?
It's a curious thing...you'd think the anti-dote to rascism would be to try and be colour blind
- yet it seems - particularly amongst the PC brigade and the left - that the anti-dote to rascism is to place a huge emphasis on race and to be absolutely obsessed with it.
