Quote by Martin Luther King Jr. 1963

Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere. We are caught in an inescapable network of mutuality, tied in a single garment of destiny.

Additional information : Martin Luther King Jr. wrote this quote in a letter letter while confined in the Birmingham city jail, responding to a statement made by eight white Alabama clergymen who agreed that social injustices existed but argued that the battle against racial segregation should be fought solely in the courts, not in the streets. The quote emphasizes the interconnectedness of all communities and the idea that injustice in one place affects justice everywhere.
