Why does the author feel that whites owe King the greatest debt?
Because he changed the way that whites think about other races. He said that all people are equal, and whites before never believed that, they always thought that they were the supreme ones.
Was King "the right man at the right time"?
Yes, he was, because without King, then this movement wouldn't have gotten that far. If he had come along before this movement, he would of gotten lynched. After this movement, It could of still of working out, but with everything else going on right now, it would have been harder for him to get support and there wouldn't of been as much to fight for.
Would King be upset with the current use of his most often quoted line? Why or why not?
Yes, because his line is dreaming of something that will better America. Well his dream happened. Now children are busy with talking to friends on their cellphones, or are on the computer playing games. But never would you see a teenager playing a game with his or her family because now that's "uncool". Today, people don't understand how much freedom is until they have lost it, and that's why King would be upset with how people use his most famous 4 words.
