Freedom of Expression, Racial Equality, and Martin Luther King

"'A CHINESE MARTIN LUTHER KING?!'" is a page put up by an open-minded artist who believes that the three-story-tall monument to Martin Luther King should be created by the most qualified artist: as long as that artist is black.

No Chinese need apply, is how I understand the artist's belief.

(That's what the Web is for, in part: giving the oppressed a voice, in this intolerant society. Or being a platform for whatever your belief is, about whatever your view of where you live is.)
