Let Freedom Ring!
To look into the life of the man we honor on this holiday, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., we revisit an Adair County High School student's search for the source of his greatness.
The 2012 student found surprising answers to why this man, "a nobody just like the rest of us, a man born with the same amount of courage we all have, but, she says, followed his dream," the advice of Dr. King.
"When your cause appears, do not wait for someone with 'more courage,' to change the tide. Find your voice. Let freedom ring from the curvaceous slopes of California all the way to Stone Mountain in Georgia."
