I remember after Dr. King's assassination the pastor of the Presbyterian church we where going to had been to the March and did a slide show of the March as a kind of remembrance.

Alot has changed but alot more needs to change. Easier for multi-racial couples these days. I look at the mixed race couple my Mom did work for back in the 60's and the problems they would have faced and the problems there children faced versus today and I see a difference.

By the way I am white
