The message of Martin Luther King, Jr. – that we should be judged on the content of our character, not on the color of our skin – dwells in the American soul; so does the menace of the Ku Klux Klan. History hangs precariously in the balance between such extremes. Our fate is contingent upon which element – that of hope or that of fear – emerges triumphant.
