Quote by Martin Luther King, Jr.
“Every revolutionary movement has its peaks of united activity and its valleys of debate and internal confusion. This debate might well have been little more than a healthy internal difference of opinion, but the press loves the sensational and it could not allow the issue to remain within the private domain of the movement. In every drama there has to be an antagonist and a protagonist, and if the antagonist is not there the press will find and build one.”

There, he raised public consciousness of the civil rights movement and established himself as one of the greatest orators in U.S. history.
