What MLK would have said about #Ferguson

I contend that the cry of "black power" is, at bottom, a reaction to the reluctance of white power to make the kind of changes necessary to make justice a reality for the Negro. I think that we've got to see that a riot is the language of the unheard.

-- Dr. Martin Luther King, Sept. 27, 1966.

Unfortunately I can't embed it, but the entire interview with CBS' Mike Wallace is fascinating. Watch it here.
