We gathered outside of Conway City Hall around 10am, and for once the weather wasn't to bad. Talking to people that have been before, I found out that this event gets bigger every year. This year was no exception. I talked with many different people at the march, including Senator Gilbert Baker. Of course I had to discuss politics with Mr. Baker. We talked about issues, political races and family. My favorite part of the march was when they explained why they wanted to march instead of having a parade. They said they wanted it to be about inclusion and not observation. I think this is an important part about remembering Dr. King. Marching was something everyone could do. Black or White; man or woman; young and old. The march led us down Front street, to the round-about and then Tyler Street. We ended the March with a group of speakers in the Faulkner County Library. All in all it was very good event. It reminds you of the work that we have done, and all the work we have still yet to do. One thing is for sure- Martin Luther King shows us each and everyday that if you can dream it, America is a place that can do it. We must remember the path we have traveled, but never go backwards...We must always march forward.<div><br /></div><div>Jonathan T.
