"A true revolution of values will lay hands on the world order and say of war: 'This way of settling differences is not
just.' This business of burning human beings with napalm, of filling our nations homes with orphans and widows, of
injecting poisonous drugs of hate into the veins of peoples normally humane, of sending men home from dark and bloody
battlefields physically handicapped and psychologically deranged, cannot be reconciled with wisdom, justice, and love. A
nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is
approaching spiritual death.
"America, the richest and most powerful nation in the world, can well lead the way in this revolution of values.
There is nothing except a tragic death wish to prevent us from reordering our priorities so that the pursuit of peace will
take precedence over the pursuit of war. There is nothing to keep us from molding a recalcitrant status quo with bruised
hands until we have fashioned it into a brotherhood."
-Dr. King, April 4, 1967

Opera refers to a dramatic art form, originating in Europe, in which the emotional THE MET
content is conveyed to the audience as much through music, both vocal and
instrumental, as it is through the lyrics. By contrast, in musical theater an actor's dramatic

presented using the primary elements of theater such as scenery, costumes, and acting.

are accompanied by a musical ensemble ranging from a small instrumental ensemble to
a full symphonic orchestra. Source: Change.com
