Contributed commentary by Clarksville Mayor Joe Pitts: Around Monday’s national holiday celebrating the birth of Martin Luther King Jr., we pause to reflect on the life and legacy of the civil rights leader. He had a special insight and clarity, and many of the words he spoke more than six decades ago still inspire us today. Many are familiar with King’s “I Have A Dream” speech, but I’d like to talk about a lesser-known speech that strikes me as highly relevant in January 2021. In 1967, King delivered a speech at Stanford University on “The Other America.” It is a speech he gave more than once. One version was given at Grosse Point High School, in Grosse Point, Michigan, less than a month before his assassination.
