They say people don’t read anymore. Well, maybe nothing beyond 140 characters. We’ve got smartphones and iPads, and video trumps the written word. I’m not sure I buy that. Just in case, I’m going to give you two helpings of Martin Luther King, Jr. today:

1. For the readers among us, take a few quiet moments and wrap yourself around “Letter from a Birmingham Jail.” It is so fantastic they should make everyone getting the day off read it.
2. And if you’d rather just watch, immerse yourself in his “I Have a Dream” speech.

Both are from 1963.
