"...A price that the United States must pay... for the continued exploitation of the Negro and other minority groups...is the price of its own destruction."

Martin Luther King Jr discussing his “I have a dream speech” 11 months before he was murdered, this is who we should remember, not that whitewashed version of him. Martin Luther King Jr was a black revolutionary, he had hope, but he was also well aware of the struggles ahead... Rest in peace Doctor, your legacy is one we are proud to add to, you marched for us and we are marching for the next generation

I think America must see that riots do not develop out of thin air. Certain conditions continue to exist in our society which must be condemned as vigorously as we condemn riots. But in the final analysis, a riot is the language of the unheard. And what is it that America has failed to hear? It has failed to hear that the promises of freedom and justice have not been met. And it has failed to hear that large segments of white society are more concerned about tranquility and the status quo than about justice, equality, and humanity… And as long as America postpones justice, we stand in the position of having these recurrences of violence and riots over and over again. Social justice and progress are the absolute guarantors of riot prevention.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. in his speech “The Other America,” 1967

Every year I repost the #MLKalsosaid hashtag because maybe one day it'll be everywhere and white people will have to reconcile with the fact that Dr. King's dream was bigger than they're willing to imagine.

"When asking Negroes to abide by the law let us also declare that the white man does not abide by the law. Day in and day out he violates welfare laws to deprive the poor of their meager allotments. He flagrantly violates building codes and housing regulations. His police forces are the ultimate mockery of law. He violates laws on equal employment and education. The slums are the handiwork of a vicious system of the white society. Negroes live in them, but they do not make them any more than a prisoner makes a prison. And so let us say forthrightly that, if the total slum violations of law by the white man over the years are calculated and compared with the lawbreaking of a few days of riots, the hardened criminal would handily be the white man. In using the term white man I am seeking to describe in general terms the Negro's adversary."
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr

We know through painful experience that freedom is never voluntarily given by the oppressor; it must be demanded by the oppressed.
