Our church program today featured this poem, "One Day," from Martin Luther King Jr.
One day, youngsters will learn words they will not understand.
Children from India will ask: "What is hunger?"
Children from Alabama will ask: "What is racial segregation?"
Children from Hiroshima will ask: "What is an atomic bomb?"
Children at school will ask: "What is war?"
You will answer them,
You will tell them: "Those words are not used anymore; like stage coaches, galleys or slavery, they are words no longer meaningful. That is why they have been removed from the dictionaries."
