Martin Luther King Jr. Talks about the Labor
Movement
"The
labor movement was the principal force that transformed misery and despair
into hope and progress. Out of its bold struggles, economic and social
reform gave birth to unemployment insurance, old-age pensions, government
relief for the destitute and, above all, new wage levels that meant not mere
survival but a tolerable life. The captains of industry did not lead this
transformation; they resisted it until they were overcome. When in the
thirties the wave of union organization crested over the nation, it carried
to secure shores not only itself but the whole society."
—Speech to the state convention of the Illinois
AFL-CIO, Oct. 7, 1965
