Amazing how after so long we still have to fight for the same things
Never give up! It’s more important now than ever
As a daily wearer of overalls, I love the hell out of the man in the overalls and dress shirt.
They marched for equality, they marched for all of us.

“I imagine you already know that I am much more socialistic in my economic theory than capitalistic… [Capitalism] started out with a noble and high motive… but like most human systems it fell victim to the very thing it was revolting against. So today capitalism has out-lived its usefulness.”
“Call it democracy, or call it democratic socialism, but there must be a better distribution of wealth within this country for all God’s children.”
“The evils of capitalism are as real as the evils of militarism and evils of racism.”
“The profit motive, when it is the sole basis of an economic system, encourages a cutthroat competition and selfish ambition that inspires men to be more concerned about making a living than making a life.”
– Martin Luther King, Jr.
