In MLK's Speech MLK talks about the "White Only" signs. This is also similar to Langston Hughes story "One Friday Morning." In "One Friday Morning", Nancy Lee has this talented beautiful water color painting however she cannot win the award because the award is for non-colored people or you can call it "White Only." Both of them have experience the same type of segregation, being labeled as color for pointless reasons, whether using a bathroom to winning an art reward. More towards the end MLK says "With this faith, we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day." which is very similar to Nancy Lee's final thought "This is the land we must make." Both of them have felt the same type of segregation, and both want to make a change in America.
