This is Martin Luther King, Jr.'s last presidential address to the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (1967). For those who have tried to convert Dr. King into a harmless symbol while ignoring his message,this is a most uncomfortable speech indeed, which is why you never hear too much about it. It remains relevant today. I've culled this from A Testament of Hope: The Essential Writings and Speeches of Martin LutherKing, Jr., edited by James Melvin Washington, where this speech is published under the title Where Do We Go From Here? on pages 245-252. Any errors of transcription are my own.
