Martin Luther King Day - Remember This Speech

Dr. King gave many memorable speeches in his brief lifetime. Everyone can quote from his "I Have a Dream" speech, but at this time when another tragic unjust war is tearing our country apart it may be good to remember this speech he gave on April 4, 1967 at Riverside Church in New York City.

"True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. It comes to see
that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring." (M.L.King)
