It is difficult to witness what is happening in the USA in terms of hatred and intolerance after the sacrifices and leadership of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. January 2019 will mark the 90th birthday of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the 88th birthday of MLK’s “wintertime soldier,” Dr. Clarence B. Jones. Now, more than ever, America is in need of ‘wintertime soldiers” who will turn awareness into action.
As Tom Paine’s famous words in 1776 state, “These are the times that try men’s souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of their country; but he that stands by it now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman.”
This Columbia College Today cover story of Dr. Jones will inspire all to be a wintertime soldier in our current environment.
Dr. Jones continues the fight of a wintertime soldier.
