Dr. King's quotes were sampled from a recording of his sermon titled "But If Not" delivered at Ebenezer Baptist Church on November 5th, 1967. Set against samples from Nina Simone's "To Be Young, Gifted, and Black",  a song that was also pivotal to the Civil Rights Movement.  The combination delivers a powerful message that’s still timely 50+ years later.
