About This Quote
In this powerful quote, Martin Luther King Jr. was talking about the need for those who have been oppressed to have the courage to fight against those once again oppressing their people. He was speaking of a war that had been going on in his own mind for a long time. It began when he was a child and it continued all through his life. What he said next would not change the world overnight, but it would be a start.
