"the Negro" still face the problems of unjust and prejudicial treatment, and extreme economic disparity as evidences by these lines: "the Negro is still sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination." and "the Negro lives on a lonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity." Lastly, King also mentioned that "the Negros" still suffered from unacceptance, hatred, and racism on his own land in the line "Negro is still languished in the corners of American society and finds himself an exile in his own land."
