……
We can never be satisfied as long as the Negro is the
victim of the unspeakable horrors of police brutality.
We can never be satisfied as long as our bodies, heavy
with the 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
