The tortuous road which has led from Montgomery,
Alabama to Oslo bears witness to this truth. This is a road
over which millions of Negroes are travelling to find a new
sense of dignity. This same road has opened for all
Americans a new era of progress and hope. It has led to a
new Civil Rights Bill, and it will, I am convinced, be widened
and lengthened into a super highway of justice as Negro
and white men in increasing numbers create alliances to
overcome their common problems.
- Martin Luther King Jr., Nobel Prize acceptance speech,
1964
What idea is King expressing through his metaphor comparing the civil rights

roads as white men, which was unfair.

will end with victory
O D. People fear the civil rights movement because they are afraid it
