Robert Machak

The Superintendent of Schools in Woodland School District 50

[Be A King @BerniceKing]

I put these two clips of Daddy together because I want to share him saying “I’m tired of marching,” then, after continuing the multifaceted work of nonviolence, saying “I’ve been to the mountaintop.”

The 2nd clip is from the speech he gave the night before he was assassinated.
