Burnside Writers Collective published my article “St. John’s Leads the Nation in Civil Rights,” about the civil rights history of the Church of the Presidents. The article includes information on Barack Obama’s inauguration and Martin Luther King Day.

I appreciate that you highlight a church involved in promoting civil rights. It is a very appropriate piece on this special day to celebrate the legacy of Dr. King. We have come a long way, yet still have a long way to go.
I chose to write today on the racism that was and still is prevalent among some white Midwesterners. It’s called “Was He Only Dreaming?: Hoosier Perspectives on Martin Luther King”. I’d love for you to check it out and tell me what you think.
Great! I look forward to checking it out!
