MLK and My Unusual Middle Name

Two years ago, I took the time to interview my father, who was one of 300 to accompany Martin Luther King on the famous march from Selma to Montgomery in 1965.

That march had a profound effect on the course of civil rights in this country, and my father’s participation in it had a profound effect on me.

I invite you to read, or re-read, the story I wrote two years ago based on that interview: What’s in a name – an MLK Day Reflection.
