MLK

No school today--Dr. King's birthday is celebrated in the USA with federal, state and county workers off in many localities.

I remembered the beautiful song my daughter's choir sang in 1999 or so when she was in high school.  Took me forever to figure out what the title meant--I'm so culturally clueless sometimes.  Here are some versions of that beautiful composition to appreciate:

Baylor University version

RO MASCHILE LA STELE version

Thanks to Langston Hughes for the label quote.
