    Seeing as how this is a rhetorical question I'll just throw my two cents in....and as far as local or national issues I unfortunately think Dr. King would say, "the more things change the more they remain the same."

    While the nature of the struggle has changed and can be measured in different ways, I'd like to believe Dr King would focus on the US criminal justice system (ie Incarceration). The nature of incarceration and crime has changed since his murder.
