The whirlwinds of revolt will continue to shake the foundations of our nation until the bright day of justice emerges

As you press on for justice, be sure to move with dignity and discipline, using only the weapon of love.

Let us rise up tonight with greater readiness. Let us stand with a greater determination. And let us move on in these powerful days, these days of challenge to make America what it ought to be. We have an opportunity to make America a better nation.

Now is the time to open the doors of opportunity to all of God's children. Now is the time to lift our nation from the quicksands of racial injustice to the solid rock of brotherhood. Now is the time to make justice a reality for all of God's children.
