QUOTE OF THE DAY: CORETTA SCOTT KING


Make Room At The Table for Lesbian and Gay People

"I still hear people say that I should not be talking about the rights of lesbian and gay people and I should stick to the issue of racial justice," she said. "But I hasten to remind them that Martin Luther King Jr. said, 'Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.'" "I appeal to everyone who believes in Martin Luther King Jr.'s dream to make room at the table of brother- and sisterhood for lesbian and gay people," In a speech four days before the 30th Anniversary of her husband's death March 31, 1998.
