The arc of the universe...

Dr. King's funeral, 1968. (Don Hogan Charles/NYT)

It's M.L. King Day today. Schools are closed. No b-ball practice. This will be my only post as I'm taking the day off and spending at least some of it contemplating Dr. King's famous statement  -- his conviction that the freedom movement was destined to overcome in the long run, "because the arc of the universe is long but it bends toward justice.” ("A Testament of Hope")

I don't take that on faith but I'll give it some more thought and be back at it tomorrow.
