Remembering Martin Luther King Jr.

On April 3, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. gave what would be his last speech before his assassination in Memphis, Tennessee, the following day.  His speech lasted a little more than 40 minutes and has come to be called “I’ve Been to the Mountaintop.”  Even though the entire speech was powerful, one line especially resonates with us here at Rana Analytics, “Let us develop a kind of dangerous unselfishness.”  During this Martin Luther King Jr. day, let us renew this call for unselfishness.  Let us remember that human and civil rights belong to everyone on this planet regardless of ethnicity, gender, religion, sexuality, or disability.  Rana Analytics will not profess to get it right every time, but we do make this commitment. 

We will err on the side of compassion and inclusion in all we do!

We know, by doing this, that we will always be on the right side of history.

Please join us in celebrating the life of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and all past, present, and future leaders who strive for human and civil rights both in the United States and around the world.
