“However I, Samuel Ortom, won’t ever maintain quiet so long as injustice and marginalization prevail within the affairs of our nation. I uphold the phrases of Dr. Martin Luther King Junior when he stated and I quote: ‘If peace means accepting second class citizenship, I don’t need it.

If peace means conserving my mouth shut within the midst of injustice and evil, I don’t need it. If peace means being complacently adjusted to a deadening status-quo, I don’t need peace. If peace means a willingness to be exploited economically, dominated politically, humiliated and segregated, I don’t need peace.’
