On this day, 40 years after the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., I can't help but wonder "How far have we come in the last 40 years?" While political commentators constantly subject us to silliness relating to our African-American leaders, we have to re-direct and THINK about the depth of where we are as women - and as women of color - and the progress that still needs to made. One of the biggest areas I see that we CAN make a difference is in monetary support. So today, I choose to honor Dr. King with not just a moment of silence, but to also make an impact that can be felt, and make a donation in support of Obama, a political leader whose message, many say is reminiscent of Dr. King. If you're with me, just click here! How much progress do you think we've made? Weigh in! For now, let's reflect on the positive and not just believe in making a difference, but actually DO IT!
