Today’s Labor Quote: Martin Luther King, Jr.

"Now is the time to make real the promises of democracy. Now is the time to rise from the dark and desolate valley of segregation to the sunlit path of racial justice. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quick sands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God’s children."
From Dr. King’s “I Have A Dream” speech on August 28, 1963 (see Labor History, below)
