Now that we have the Tea Party out of the way, I was thinking about some things we could do coming up in January and thought of MLK day. As we all know, we have quoted Dr. King in many of our video's. We also stand for civil liberties and share many of Dr. King's ideas. I think it would be only fair to give back a little on Martin Luther King Day.

Being that it's charity, it shouldn't be used to promote. Rather show by means of action that we do support Dr. King's cause. I think many of us take offense to being characterized as white supremecists. Yes, there may be some that do support RP, but the majority of us (I hope) are not.

I'll leave the floor open to ideas. This may be better done at the Meetup level, but I thought I'd get some ideas before going there. I will say that I'm opposed to simply raising a bunch of money and giving it to a MLK foundation. I think that would be perceived as trying to buy votes.
