King’s eldest son, Martin Luther King III; his wife, Arndrea Waters King; and their daughter, Yolanda Renee King, are leading a march on Martin Luther King Jr. Day across the Frederick Douglass Memorial Bridge in D.C. at 10 a.m. before joining the city’s annual Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Peace Walk. They are urging the Senate and President Biden to enact federal voting rights legislation.

Damn, let's make it huge!

Wish I could go but I'm just recovering from cancer.

Have peaceful fun everyone!

Although the forecasts have backed off substantially from 6+ inches of snow, it still could be raining on the parade.
