I mean, how did I end up in this place…or how did this place come to be a location where people working for equal rights are whiners?
Really?
Really?
I can only imagine that someone who would say such a thing also thought that Martin and Malcolm and Medger were also just whining. And so were César and Dolores and Philip Vera Cruz and the Filipino farm workers at Delano. Whiners all. Really, there was so much more important stuff to worry about than equal rights in their time.
Now, I don’t claim to be anywhere near the same league as those people, but the point is the same. You either believe in equal rights or you don’t. And when you see someone without them, you do your damnedest to see that must change.
