Freedom

1.17.11 - Freedom. The quality or state of being free: as the absence of necessity, coercion, or constraint or action. Liberation from slavery or restraint from the power of another: independence.

Remembering the legacy of Martin Luther King, Jr. today. 

...And when this happens, when we allow freedom to ring, when we let it ring from every village and every hamlet, from every state and every city, we will be able to speed up that day when all of God's children, black men and white men, Jews and Gentiles, Protestants and Catholics, will be able to join hands and sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual, "Free at last! free at last! thank God Almighty, we are free at last!"
