It seems the whole thing started innocently enough, when an American-born, Japanese-based English teacher named Jessica Dovey amended an actual Dr. King quote from his 1963 sermon compilation The Strength to Love with her own personal sentiments (see above).
Dovey’s words, clearly marked in the original post as being separate from the King quote, were then copied wholesale by her Facebook friends, and quickly spread throughout the web as a single, solitary quote attributed to MLK.
So now you know.
