1/21/03:These quite excellent links were posted on the CCM Listserv this morning and are worth passing on here - For myself, a most appropriate way to honor Martin Luther King, Jr. this year would be a recording of his prescient 1966 speech "Why I oppose the War in Viet Nam [MP3, 5.4 megs, 23:30]. The file comes from Wrybread.com along with the "I Have a Dream" speech) who prefaces "Viet Nam" as follows: [This speech is] a discussion of America's motives for involvement in Vietnam and a little bit about our hushed history, amazing how little has changed, the speech could have been made yesterday. In 1964, the year Dr. King won the Nobel Peace Prize, Time Magazine called him man of the year, but they called this speech "a demagogic slander that sounded like a script for Radio Hanoi." Sort of like what they said about Susan Sontag's beautiful critique of America in Afghanistan. Also, from the Seattle Times, a catalogue of many other speeches and sermons whose topics include poverty, education, and strategies for non-violence. posted by jeremy @ 3:53 AM
