        <description><![CDATA[From: Sojourner's Place On August 28, 1963, Martin Luther King, Jr said:

 It is obvious today that America has defaulted on this promissory note insofar as her citizens of color are concerned. Instead of honoring this sacred obligation, America has given the Negro people a bad check which has come back marked "insufficient funds."
