     Few public figures, in the last half of the twentieth century, have commanded as much world-wide attention as the Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. A staunch advocate for the social equity of an oppressed People, Reverend King, worked tirelessly to secure their freedom, and paid the ultimate sacrifice by losing his own life, when he was felled by a sniper s bullet, while standing of the balcony in front of his second story motel room in Memphis Tennessee on April 4, 1968.     Not unlike Abraham Lincoln s untimely demise some 103 years earlier, who was also assassinated in defense of a cause to literally free an oppressed people from the bondage of slavery, I have always wondered just how different it would have been if Martin Luther King, Jr. had also survived martyrdom, and had continued in his endeavor to better the plight of the American Negro.
