“There are two Americas. One America is beautiful for situation. In this America, millions of people have the milk of prosperity and the honey of equality flowing before them. This America is the habitat of millions of people who have food and materials necessities for their bodies, culture and education for their minds, freedom and human dignity for their spirits. In this America, children grow up in the sunlight of opportunity.”
“But there is another America…In this America, millions of people are forced to live in distressing housing conditions…In this other America, thousands of young people are deprived of an opportunity to get an adequate education…There are so many other people in the other America who can never make ends meet because their incomes are far too low if they have incomes, and their jobs are devoid of quality…These conditions are the things that cause individuals to feel that they have no other alternative than to engage in violent rebellions to get attention. And I must say tonight that a riot is the language of the unheard.”
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. – The Other America
