MLK didn&#x27;t have to deal with today&#x27;s world.  The world he lived in had a stark contrast of right and wrong, and obvious injustice abounded.  The closer you get to an equal world, the harder those with privilege will fight to make sure that it never happens.<p>Today&#x27;s world is one where we&#x27;ve made progress, but now the majority is tired of the minority pointing out its flaws.  One side wants equality, and the other side is tired of hearing about how the system that clearly benefits them in ways that they don&#x27;t even see is flawed.<p>It&#x27;s hard to get a mediocre white man to agree that affirmative action is necessary.  All he sees is the opportunity that someone else got because of their race and ability to keep up with the privileged.
