OTHER VIEWS...
“I refuse to accept the idea that man is
mere flotsam and jetsam in the river of life
which surrounds him. I refuse to accept the
view that mankind is so tragically bound to the
starless midnight of racism and war that the
bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can
never become a reality.”
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., Dec. 10, 1964
:in accepting the Nobel Peace Prize.
“I know that every American of good will
join me in mourning the death of this
outstanding leader, and in praying for peace
and understanding throughout this land”...
PRESIDENT JOHNSON.

shame to our country. The apostle of
nonviolence has been the victim of violence.
The cause for which he marched and
worked...will find new strength”... VICE
PRESIDENT HUMPHREY.
“Those of you who are black can be filled
with hatred, with bitterness and a desire for
revenge. We can move toward further

Martin Luther King did, to understand, to
reconcile ourselves and to live”...SENATOR
ROBERT F. KENNEDY.

tragedy for all Americans. Not only have his

man of peace. We can only grieve."...SENA

speak of another with hatred is the same and
causes death”...MRS. JOHN F. KENNEDY.

happen. If it does... I think it will be the will of
God. If it does, it would be a great way to give
oneself to a great cause. But I pray to God
nothing happens”...MRS. MARTIN LUTHER
KING, JR.
“The entire nation suffers for this madness
and must grieve for her fallen leaders, and
must rededicate herself to the sacred national
goal of social justice for all”...MAYOR

solves none of our...problems. It is more
evidence of a moral sickness that seems to be
afflicting our nation.”...GOV. RONALD
REAGAN.

but none of us would have wished him that
fate.”...GOV. JOHN CONNALLY, OF
