The Poor, You Know, Have A Way Of Solving Problems...they Have A Tremendous Capacity For Suffering. And So When You Build A Vehicle To Get Something Done, As We've Done Here In The Strike And The Boycott, Then They Continue To Suffer - And Maybe A Little Bit More - But The Suffering Becomes Less Important Because They See A Chance Of Progress; Sometimes Progress Itself. They've Been Suffering All Their Live.s It's A Question Of Suffering With Some Kind Of Hope Now. That's Better Than Suffering With No Hope At All.
