[Ohio-talk] 50th year of the dream

[Cheryl Fischer]

Richard,

On this day, I thank God for sending us leaders who bring us hope, courage,
and clarity and I am grateful to those leaders for being willing to take on
the task. It is good for our hearts to reflect on Dr. King's words and to be
thankful for the courage he instilled in us to fight for what we know to be
right and for reminding us to be caring towards each other. 

Cheryl

I can remember the statement that Dr. Jernigan    made by comparing the
struggles of the blind with the civil rights movement    of African
Americans.
This is the 50th anniversary of Dr. Kings I have a dream and the historical
march. We have our own march on Washington that we now call the Washington
seminar.
I can state this day that when I first heard the comparison it seemed to be
a stretch to me. When I look back at the trail of years it reminds me of
just how far we have come and the long road ahead. Richard
