Early Morning, April 4

[U2Bama]

Shot rings out in the Memphis sky
Free at last, they took your life
They could not take your pride...

In the name of love

 

[sulawesigirl4]

Sleep, sleep tonite...and my your dreams be realized
If the thunder cloud passes rain, so let it rain, let it rain,
Rain on me...

You are forever in our hearts and mind Dr. King!

...And hopefully in our minds. We need to be proactive about living up to his dreams. Thank you all for remembering.

One man come in the name of love.

" I refuse to accept the cynical notion that nation after nation must spiral down a militaristic stairway into the hell of thermonuclear destruction. I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant."

-MARTIN LUTHER KING

You old timers will know that is the quote on the back of the Pride (In the Name of Love) 12" single. I used to have it, but when I was younger I was not as responsible with U2 collectibles as I am now and I somehow lost it. Thanks to Chris (spanisheyes) for sending me the quote a few months ago (he still has the 12" single!).

Camilo:

I posted this thread from work today, and looked quickly online for an image of the back cover of that 12 inch, because I wanted to post it, along with the portrait of Dr. King above it. I could only find the front cover (phot of the band) although I have the 12 inch here at home. I'll see about scanning it tonight.

But that is a powerful quote, and thanks for sharing it.

when i went to Memphis i went to that motel where he was shot. It was all boarded up then, nothing had changed, same as it was when he was killed. they said they were going to fix it up. you get a really sad feeling when you stand there and look, and over where James Earl Ray shot from. did you see on the news a man in FLA has said his father is now the real killer, who just died, and the FBI is looking into his claims.

One man come here to justify
One man to overthrow
