“Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in healthcare is the most shocking and inhumane.” ~Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

Martin Luther King and Health Care Reform

Dr. King once said, "Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane."

In a 2006 op-ed in the Charlotte News & Observer, Richard Payne wrote, "Is there any doubt that King would have been on the forefront of arguments for payment of a living wage to the working poor, and that he would have advocated for universal health care?"
