On 31st March 1968, just 4 days before his murder, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., made an impassioned speech in which he states, "The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends towards justice.[1]"

An opinion in Boston Globe on the eve of Martin Luther King Jr. Day this year, emphasises that, "The arc of the moral universe bends not from gravity but from the gravitas of our collective struggle to improve our communities, our society, and our world. The arc of the moral universe does not passively bend; it is actively bent.Webend it.[2]"

Do you agree with Dr. King's statement and the Boston Globe opinion, and if so, what does that mean to us as fledgling law students?
