Coretta Scott King: What Is Violence?

Deprived: Images of abject suffering and deprivation on the Gulf Coast were laid bare by Hurricane Katrina, but, in Mississippi alone nearly one third of all children were poor even before the disaster struck. Most still are.

I must remind you that starving a child is violence. Suppressing a culture is violence. Neglecting school children is violence. Punishing a mother and her family is violence. Discrimination against a working man is violence. Ghetto housing is violence. Ignoring medical need is violence. Contempt for poverty is violence.

- Coretta Scott King
