He was a man
Named after an martyr
That alone alludes to greatness
And it did

He was a father, brother, leader
A great man he was
Leading those oppressed
Silenced by a seed of hatred

Felled by the bullet of racism
Killed by segregation
He had a dream for our country
"I have a Dream"

We were discussing the ideology behind the famous "I have a Dream" speech which inspired me to write this about him
