Justice and power must be brought together, so that whatever is just may be powerful, and whatever is powerful may be just. In matters of truth and justice, there is no difference between large and small problems, for issues concerning the treatment of people are all the same. It is impossible to struggle for civil rights, equal rights for blacks, without including whites. Because equal rights, fair play, justice, are all like the air: we all have it, or none of us has it. That is the truth of it. These men ask for just the same thing, fairness, and fairness only. This, so far as in my power, they, and all others, shall have. Life is never fair, and perhaps it is a good thing for most of us that it is not.
