| He believed land ownership = economic justice! |

Hey Food Slayer!
That's right. Today we celebrate the great Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., and a little known fact about him is, that in the later part of his life, his fight for economic justice included the Poor People's Campaign, the Committee of 100 and the "Economic Bill of Rights". This bill included "access to land" for economic uses.
Well....sadly, this never came to pass yet we still fight for economic justice. Especially small farmers who don't have access to land. Without land, can we really thrive economically?
