Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Quote

Quote from Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,

"It is precisely because education is the road to equality and citizenship, that it has been made more elusive for Negroes than many other rights. The walling off of Negroes from equal education is part of the historical design to submerge him in second class status. Therefore, as Negroes have struggled to be free they have had to fight for the opportunity for a decent education."
