The Faith of Martin Luther King


            Martin Luther King, with Rep. John Lewis on right

"I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality...I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word in reality. This is why right temporarily defeated is stronger than evil triumphant."

Martin Luther King, Jr.
