martin luther king before they were ever spoken. let no man hole you so low as to hate him. every american knows we have a complicated history. filled as human existences with contradiction. yet at the root, america is beautiful. the promise of america should be realized in full by being purified in practice. but we must know that we can only hold to that promise and we, asat demand if frederick douglass date, love america, its constitution, it's prince of polls -- its principles, and its people. our nation honors frederick douglass because of his struggl in his life. he taught us all what it means to be an american. thank you.

it's so this painting of martin luther kneeling before st anna has great relevance. and. another historical moment was charles darwin's departure from england in eight hundred thirty one he returned from his round the world voyage with his theory of evolution a moment that his contemporary william turner never painted. when planning his paintings for the kairos project vote truckie leaves nothing to chance he had young vermeer's studio reconstructed in detail for this painting in the dutch master style. and the studio in which he painted his client was a ball room from the art nouveau era. truckie always prepares his projects together with his wife elena the couple who are behind the biggest forgery scandal of the twenty first century so far they out when did the art world for nearly twenty years before being discovered and sentenced to years in prison the bill truckies had smuggled over three hundred four juries into the art market most of them have yet to be identified. and. now he is doing what he's always done and does best he's creating art work in the style of other

one was a talk about what was martin luther king jr., about whatever was going on. what would martin do? and we would talk about it. then he would say what would martin say and we would talk about what martin would have said about whatever was going on. and this was four years, and in between martin luther king day dependingwhat was happening around the world . so i always ask myself, i just came back from speaking in tampa for their martin luther king celebration and what i talk about is what martin would say, what he would do about all that's going on. and one of the stories, do you want me to tell the story? one of the stories one time was the lgbt groups had been wanting her to come out and say something in favor of the rights of people without regard to sexual orientation and she told me, she said the men who were with martin and whenever she said that, she met the guys were there singing with martin. we knew which men, she didn't have to name them.they said i shouldn't have to do it because that's not my issue and that's not your issue and coretta, don't do it.

and then we get to martin luther. now you know, martin luther was such a powerful guy. he put his thesis on the church door. and he challenged the entire church of rome and he said that the church had become corrupt. and because of that, they put a bounty on his head and he had to flee for his life and he stands out as one of the greatest of all time. and there was williams wilb wilburforce. my wife and my daughter were in london, and they visited westminster abby. you see, wilburforce was a guy that said, we need to end the slave trade in great britain. that we need to bring manners back to great britain, where we have a new day where we learn how to respect one another. and wilburforce fought for many, many years, he lost his life because of it. he wore himself completely out. my daughter and my wife while they were in westminster abby, they took a picture of the statue that i have on my phone to this very day. so when we think about the meaning of life, there's two ways, maybe more than two, but two the way i think about it. and those are the humanists. you see human

senator kennedy spoke to a crowd in indianapolis and announced the death of martin luther king. an unbelievable responsibility. and if you watch now in a video, you will hear the gasp of the audience who was unaware that that moment had taken place. and yet he spoke to the crowd about why violence and retribution should not be pursued. he created calm among chaos. he created a moment where everybody realized that they were commemorating the life of dr. martin luther king, that his life had been about a nonviolent response to tragedy and to the challenges that we face. when we commemorate this moment with a national plaque, we are commemorating a moment, in my opinion, of the human spirit. we are commemorating a moment about what incredible pain robert kennedy must have felt knowing that martin luther king had just been assassinated, but yet he spoke to the crowd about keeping the peace and remembering the lessons of dr. king. we will never know what kind of presidency r.f.k. might have given our nation, but we know this from this speech. we know what kind of man he was, and we k

just two months after martin luther king's assassination. here our political leaders, our social activists are being gunned down. bobby kennedy, ironically had been the person to rise up on that april 4th night, 1968 in indiana. gets the word as he comes in to indianapolis going to speak to an african-american segment of indianapolis that martin luther king has been shot. he tells the people. it's viewed as one of the best speeches ever in political history in the united states. it's off the cuff. he has no script. he doesn't say our thoughts and prayers are with the king family. you can hear the gasp in the audience. indianapolis is the only major city that doesn't go up in flames that night. to think two months later he's assassinated. i've written a biography of his mother. his mother said if this had been a work of fiction that this family would lose two of its sons running for a presidency and in the presidency, she said i wouldn't have believed it. it was incomprehensible that level of violence. >> dave from north port, new york. thank
