Long ago, Martin Luther King addressed these problems: “There can be no gainsaying of the fact that a great revolution is taking place in the world today… that is, a technological revolution, with the impact of automation and cybernation . . . Now, whenever anything new comes into history it brings with it new challenges and new opportunities… [T]he geographical oneness of this age has come into being to a large extent through modern man’s scientific ingenuity. Modern man through his scientific genius has been able to dwarf distance and place time in chains… Through our scientific and technological genius, we have made of this world a neighborhood and yet we have not had the ethical commitment to make of it a brotherhood. But somehow, and in some way, we have got to do this.” That was Rev. Martin Luther King, March 31, 1968. We still have the problem of the lack of inclusion.
