Original Note:
While MLK certainly advocated for Equality, Justice and Opportunity for all, he never advocated for “equity”. https://www.history.com/topics/black-history/martin-luther-king-jr Equality is the distribution of resources equally to all, regardless of race; “equity” is distribution of resources based on perceived “need” or other criteria. https://www.health.com/mind-body/health-diversity-inclusion/equity-vs-equality
