As part of Black History Month my college celebrates Harmony Week. During this time we have guest speakers, wonderful celebrations, and interesting displays. I had the privilege of meeting and hearing a wonderful gentleman today. I will have to say he was one of the most inspirational speakers I have ever met. Rev. Samuel "Billy" Kyles was an eyewitness to the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and is the only person still living to have spent the last hour with Dr. King. The Reverend Keyes spoke at the Logan Campus today and he filled my heart with joy and my eyes with tears. I cried over the injustices that he and his family had suffered and cheered for the message of hope he embraced. It was a wonderful day...
