A 5 page paper arguing that access to health care is a right, rather than a privilege.

A 5 page paper which discusses the character of Martin Luther King Jr. in the book 'Dreamer' by Charles Johnson. Johnson's book presents a fictional illustration of King, yet apparently seems to have grasped a great deal of who King really was. He presents the reader with a fictional account of King's struggles, through the use of a narrator, Smith, who looks exactly like King, and becomes part of King's group, hoping to help their cause. The character of King is incredibly detailed, but also complex in light of Smith presenting himself as another aspect of King. No additional sources cited.

Of course there could be other MRFs discovered, but researchers appear to be confident that there are no poorly-understood sequences that could indicate the existence of others. Bibliography lists 9 sources.

An interesting book that gives the reader yet another perspective of the colonization of Africa. No additional sources provided.
