"You deplore the demonstrations taking place in Birmingham. But your statement, I am sorry to say, fails to express a similar concern for the conditions that brought about the demonstrations. I am sure that none of you would want to rest content with the superficial kind of social analysis that deals merely with effects and does not grapple with underlying causes. It is unfortunate that demonstrations are taking place in Birmingham, but it is even more unfortunate that the city's white power structure left the Negro community with no alternative." -- Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (b. 1929-01-15, d. 1968-04-04), Letter from a Birmingham Jail, 1963-04-16
And we still hear people complaining about protests but not about the things the protests are about. *grrr*
