Dear Dr. King


Rest in tranquility because your sacrifices have planted seeds and born fruit beyond compare.

Thank you for your valiancy and inspiration.  

Thank you for your altruism, stoutheartedness, leadership, and I have a Dream Speech

I withal want to thank you for incentivizing other liberation fighters such as yourself for making a better place.

Now we are able to attend programs such as Liberation School which gives us the chance to better ourselves and our inculcation.

I will relish to thank you for my family being responsible and reverent.

With that being verbalized,

I would relish to thank you again for everything

You did for the African American race because it is genuinely appreciated.
