...We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy
with fatigue of travel, cannot gain lodging in the motels
of the highways and the hotels of the cities. We cannot
be satisfied as long as the Negro’s basic mobility is from
a smaller ghetto to a larger one.
We can never be satisfied as long as our children are
stripped of their selfhood and robbed of their dignity by
signs stating “for whites only." We cannot be satisfied as
long as a Negro in Mississippi cannot vote and a Negro
in New York believes he has nothing for which to vote.
No, we are not satisfied, and we will not be satisfied...

‘7 think it is incumbent upon us as Ameri
cans to try our very best to treat all people with
the highest level o f dignity. The powers that be
have a real responsibility to make sure that
America's institutions don't continue to reflect
institutionalized racism. "
(Margaret Carter, future State Superinten
dent o f Public Instruction)
The statement o f Margaret Carter goes with
King's speech: Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands o f racial injustici
to the solid rock o f brotherhood.
“What a great example he set in eliminating violence as an option
to right wrongs. We should think about his message and his life
whenever and wherever it seems like violence is the only option
rather than the last option.”
(Bill Gallagher. Talk show host of AM 620 KNEWS)
The statement o f Bill Gallagher goes with King's speech: We must
forever conduct our struggle in the high plane o f dignity and disci
pline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into
physical violence.

“ We have fallen away from the idea o f integration. There was a time
when the Civil Rights leadership, both nationally and in Portland urged
the importance o f Blacks and Whites living and going to school to
gether. The main message o f King's speech was that integration should
be one of the goals o f America. We almost never hear that message in
Portland. Our schools are undesirably resegregated. Integrated neigh
borhoods are no longer a goal in this city on the part o f many people o f
both Blacks and Whites. ”
