On the way home from shopping I stopped at the post office to see if they had the new John Lewis stamps. They did. The person at the counter looked at it and said they usually have a description of who the person is. I asked if she knew anything about him. She did not.

I said he marched with King. Blank look. I said he was brutally beaten at the bridge. Blank look. As I turned to leave I said he is well respected by those of us who know.

After I got in the car I was thinking I also should have said the he is a person who dedicated his life to equality and I was a person who fought to make sure it could be achieved. I am guessing I would have see the same blank look even though I was proudly wearing my Army veteran’s cap.
