Martin
Luther King:
....King
observed that "the labor movement did not diminish the strength
of the nation but enlarged it. By raising the living standards of
millions, labor miraculously created a market for industry and
lifted the whole nation to undreamed of levels of production. Those
who today attack labor forget these simple truths, but history
remembers them." Why he was in Memphis. (click the name for more)
