Sarah Palin has a message for President Obama: Stop talking about race.

In marking Martin Luther King Jr. Day on her Facebook page Monday, Palin posted a photo alongside a well-known quote from Dr. King’s “I have a dream” speech–and took the opportunity to make a dig at the president.

“Mr. President, in honor of Martin Luther King, Jr. and all who commit to ending any racial divide, no more playing the race card,” Palin wrote.
