"Across the country there are 730 streets named after civil rights leader Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.

"Map them and you map a nation within a nation," says one expert, who said they are generally byways more familiar to blacks than whites."

"Beginning just south of East Cermak Road and four blocks east of South Michigan Avenue, King Drive stretches to 115th Street. The street runs through predominantly black South Side neighborhoods from Bronzeville to Roseland, spanning 14 miles."

Ah...the South Side of Chicago...

“The fundamental premise of Breadbasket is a simple one. [Blacks] need not patronize a business which denies them jobs, or advancement [or] plain courtesy,’’ said King. He charged that many retail businesses and consumer-goods industries "deplete the ghetto" by selling to blacks "without returning to the community any of the profits through fair hiring practices.’’
