Context reference to: "I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the colour of their skin, but by the *content of their character*". On 28 August in 1963, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. #1963_IHaveADream #1963_MarchOnWashingtonForJobsAndFreedom
Supplementary "Critics of affirmative action support their claim to a colorblind Constitution with disingenuous references to Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.,17 who famously dreamed of a time when people would be 'judged not by the color of their skin but the content of their character.' But King was denouncing a brutal regime of forced segregation, humiliation, and lynching of black citizens. There is little doubt he would find modest race preference an acceptable, indeed necessary, curative." https://www.nlg.org/nlg-review/article/from-dog-whistle-to-megaphone-the-trump-regimes-cynical-assault-on-affirmative-action-2/ #JournalNLGReviewASocialJusticeLawJournalMarkSBrodin #PolicyAffirmativeActionDiscriminationPositive #TheoryRacialColourBlindnessContentOfTheirCharacter
