We are on the threshold of a new century, a new millennium. What will the legacy of this vanishing century
be? How will it be remembered in the new millennium?
Surely it will be judged, and judged severely, in both moral
and metaphysical terms. These failures have cast a dark
shadow over humanity: two World Wars, countless civil
wars, the senseless chain of assassinations (Gandhi, the
Kennedys, Martin Luther King, Sadat, Rabin), bloodbaths in
Cambodia and Algeria, India and Pakistan, Ireland and
Rwanda, Eritrea and Ethiopia, Sarajevo and Kosovo; the
inhumanity in the gulag and the tragedy of Hiroshima. And,
on a different level, of course, Auschwitz and Treblinka. So
much violence; so much indifference.
Elie Wiesel, "The Perils of Indifference," 1999
What is Wiesel trying to do in this passage?

in his speech "i have a dream," king states the plight of african americans, as he argues that after the civil war, slaves were promised equal rights and freedoms, but that these promises have not materialized.

he goes on to say that there are those who ask "when will you be satisfied? " implying that african americans alread enjoy a lot. in order to attack this argument, king lists examples of civil rights struggles that african americans still face, such as police brutality, segregation and racial prejudice.
