of course, everything happens for a reason...
and if he was still alive, then racism would continue for a long time...
but for all the hard work he've done, alot of people decided to start trying to respect other people of different races since they feel sorry for a family who've lost a loved husband and father of very young kids...who was shot by hatred and fear.
alot of things are already changing since his death, and most are improving and some just need work. He always try to explain that everyone's just different, but equal inside and that goes to all native americans, jewish, hispanics, asian, blacks, and even the people with disablities who didn't get much respect as the whites back due to their skin color and culture, etc...
everyone's just different and that's good...I mean, that's REALLY good so you wouldn't be bored to death when your whole life's just the same by EVERYTHING, and you don't want that, do you? I dont think so.
RIP
Martin Luther King, Jr.
