Page 2O...The Portland Observer...January 15, 1992
“ All labor has dignity."
“ It is a crime for people to live in this rich nation and
receive starvation wages.”
“ Organized labor can be one of the most powerful
instruments in putting an end to discrimination and
segregation.”
“ Our needs are identical with labor’s needs: decent
wages, fair working conditions, livable housing, old
age security, health and welfare measures, condi­
tions in which families can grow, have education for
their children and respect in the community. That is
why Negroes support labor’s demands and fight
laws which curb labor. That is why the labor-hater
and labor-baiter is vertually always a twin-headed
creature spewing anti-Negro epithets from one
mouth and anti-labor propaganda from the other
mouth...The two most dynamic and cohesive liberal
forces in the country are the labor movement and
the Negro freedom movement...” (1961, AFL-CIO
national convention)
Coretta Scott King, on her late husband (from the book "We Shall Overcome"):
"Democracy means equal justice, equity in every aspect o f our society. I think Martin
understood from the very beginning that this goal could not be accomplished all at once.
He knew he could not take a people who were largely uneducated and unrepresented and
suddenly transform them into political activists who could immediately change the
system. And he also knew that the basic problem in our society had to do with economic
injustice or...the contrast o f wealth between the haves and the have-nots. Believe it or not,
he spoke those words to me when I first met him."
