Politics, open government, and safe streets. And the constant incursion of cycling.

Morning in DC

Worthy neighbors

A memorial to Thomas Jefferson – the man who penned the words "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal", will soon be joined by a memorial to a man who built upon those words, saying "I have a dream that one day this nation will rise up and live out the true meaning of its creed: ‘We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal."

This morning, I was lucky enough to attend the groundbreaking for the Martin Luther King, Jr. Memorial. It was an amazing gathering, which I will say more about later this evening. In the meantime, here are some pictures and notes from the morning.

    And thank you, again, Shawn.
