14、 we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.the marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that
15、their destiny is tied up with our destiny. and they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom.we cannot walk alone.and as we walk, we must make the pledge that we shall always march ahead.we cannot turn back.there are those who are asking the devotees of civil righ
