The correct answer is option letter B (each separate political station making its contribution to our lives). A famous phrase of the Inaugural Address of Governor George Wallace in 1963 is “segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever”. Segregation means keeping people from different groups, especially different races, separate. Wallace’s ideas, which were associated with racism, were a sharp contrast from Martin Luther King Jr.’s ideas. This is why Martin Luther King Jr. responded to Wallace's inaugural address in several occasions. In his “The American Dream” speech, Martin Luther King Jr. argues that there should not be segregation, since “no individual can live alone: no nation can live alone”.
