Sick of people whitewashing Martin Luther King Jr.'s legacy, artist Daniel Rarela created this series featuring quotes from King's "Letter From A Birmingham Jail." The accompanying images are both historical and contemporary. As Rarela told Mic: "As a graphic designer, I wanted to shatter this false image of a Martin Luther King who everyone loved, never got arrested, was universally popular and made zero privileged people feel uncomfortable or angry enough to want to kill him."
