Good morning, Utah! It’s going to be snowy today: 🌨️ 23 – 32° in Logan | ❄️ 60% chance 🌨️ 30 – 38° in Salt Lake City | ❄️ 70% chance 🌨️ 32 – 42° in St. George | ❄️ 60% chance Yesterday was Martin Luther King, Jr. Day, and I used the time to closely read some of the pieces we published. One that stood out to me was by the Rev. Theresa Dear, a national board member of the NAACP, titled “The power of a dream.” What strikes me about the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and his dream is that it wasn’t just a dislike of oppression — it was the hope and faith he had for the future. I suspect this is why his dream was so contagious. The Rev. Dear says: “A dream is the heart’s longing for and knowledge of a predestined eventuality. There are people who reside in this world, and those who have passed on, who never gave up on us. They made sacrifices, paved the way and suffered untold offenses for the conveniences, comforts and coexistence we experience today.” Read the full piece here. Also on our minds: The Rev. Amos Brown on what a Latter-day Saint hymn means for the NAACP, the pros and cons of Arizona’s school choice program and two bull elk go walkabout in Salt Lake City. | .png?width=1200&upscale=true&name=Utah%20Today%20Banner%20(v2).png)
