Why Should We March?
Let us march on poverty...
  • until no American parent has to skip a meal so that their children may eat...
  • until no starved man walks the streets of our cities and towns... in search of jobs that do not exist...
  • until wrinkled stomachs... are filled, ... idle industries are realized and revitalized, and broken lives... are mended and remolded.
Come March!

Let us march on ballot boxes...
  • until race-baiters disappear from the political arena.
  • until we send to our city councils, state legislatures, and the United States Congress, men who will not fear to do justly, love mercy, and walk humbly with thy God.
  • until brotherhood becomes more than a meaningless word in an opening prayer, but the order of the day on every legislative agenda.
  • until all... God’s children will be able to walk the earth in decency and honor.
Come March!
