MLK Parades Canceled Due to Cold Weather

January 17, 2025 8:18pm

In 1965, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and his supporters marched 54 miles from Selma to Montgomery over five days. Marchers were drenched in rain and slept in muddy fields along the way. They faced ridicule, taunting, threats, tear gas, whippings, beatings, and worse. Four people were killed. Yet they courageously marched anyway.

But today we cancel a parade that honors Dr. King and the Civil Rights Movement he lead because it's going to be cold??? Pathetic.

We have truly become a nation of weak pansies. Thank God Dr. King accomplished what he did when he did. Because today's generation is too soft to do what it took.
