Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.


Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s words, "We're coming to get our check", are a powerful call for economic justice and the fulfillment of promises long overdue, echoing the need for equality and economic empowerment. The phrase "we are coming to get our check" symbolizes the demand for reparations and the redress of historical injustices, including economic ones. 


The call for reparations and economic justice continues to resonate today, with activists and advocates pushing for policies that address racial wealth gaps and other economic inequalities.  Dr. King's legacy extends beyond civil rights to include economic justice, and his words serve as a reminder of the ongoing struggle for equality and opportunity for all. 


If possible, can we insert a video of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. saying

"we are coming for our check"?
