During this dark time of Donald Trump, U.S. ‘endless war’ across the world, and rampant hatred, fear, and injustice here at home, Dr. King’s message spoken at New York’s Riverside Church, April 1967 resonates * “…I knew that I could never again raise my voice against the violence of the oppressed in the ghettos without having first spoken clearly to the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today my own government.” “…Our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go out into a sometimes hostile world declaring eternal hostility to poverty, racism, and militarism.”
*Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., “Beyond Vietnam”, 4 April 1967, Riverside Church, New York City. Full speech: http://www.americanrhetoric.com/speeches/mlkatimetobreaksilence.htm
