MLK describes being a Negro baby born and brought up to physical maturity in Birmingham as being born in a jim-crow hospital to parents who live in the ghetto. You would attend a jim-crow school. You would spend your childhood playing in the streets. If you went shopping with your parents and got hungry or thirsty, you would have to wait to get to the Negro side of town.
