MLK Essay

Why does the author feel that whites owe King the greatest debt?

For liberating them from the burden of America's centuries-old hypocrisy about race.

Was King "the right man at the right time"?

Though this revolution was the product thousands upon thousands of courageous men and women, King was its culmination. It is impossible to think of the movement unfolding as it did without him.

Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not?

No, I do not believe that he would be upset because it represents justice and spiritual power.
