Dr. King chose not to focus on universal suffering or widespread poverty but rather on the collective wealth of his audience. He frames his argument for economic noncooperation with an unquestionable sense of empowerment; After you leave the United States, Soviet Russia, Great Britain, West Germany, France, and I could name the others, the Negro collectively is richer than most nations of the world. We have an annual income of more than thirty billion dollars a year, which is more than all of the exports of the United States, and more than the national budget of Canada. Did you know that? Thats power right there, if we know how to pool it. vimeo/83945200
