One Day Needs Helping

More From Martin Luther King, Jr.

On the one hand we are called to play the good samaritan on life's roadside; but that will be only an initial act. one day we must come to see that the whole jericho road must be transformed so that men and women will not be constantly beaten and robbed as they make their journey on life's highway. true compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar; it is not haphazard and superficial. it comes to see that an edifice which produces beggars needs restructuring.

True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar. it comes to see that a system that produces beggars needs to be repaved. we are called to be the good samaritan, but after you lift so many people out of the ditch you start to ask, maybe the whole road to jericho needs to be repaved.
