That seems to be the only part of his speech (any speech) that MLK Jr ever gave or word he ever spoke they seem to recall
Also generally overlooked is the fact that Dr. King was agitating on behalf of striking Memphis sanitation workers in the period leading up to his assassination.

(2,913 posts)Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
