Dignity - No One Should Have to Wait

[00:00:00]No one should have to wait for dignity.

[00:00:08]There comes a time when the cup of endurance runs over and men are no longer willing to be plunged into the abyss of despair.

[00:00:26]This is certainly a legitimate concern since we so diligently urged people to obey the Supreme Court's decision of 1954 outlawing segregation in the public schools.
