The Drum Major Instinct

quote [ King's "Drum Major Instinct" sermon, given on 4 February 1968, was an adaptation of the 1952 homily ‘‘Drum-Major Instincts’’ by J. Wallace Hamilton, a well-known, liberal, white Methodist preacher. King encouraged his congregation to seek greatness, but to do so through service and love. King concluded the sermon by imagining his own funeral, downplaying his famous achievements and emphasizing his heart to do right. ]

Sorry. I should log in more often. It's a source of leftist takes on things that is desperately missing in the United States. I think you should give it a try simply because of how lacking we are in that kind of content. I can't promise you'll like it, but I think you'll see what I mean.
