Why Injustice Till Now

"Injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere" Martin Luther King Jr. 

Why injustice till now? 
Some leaders like 
Martin Luther King Jr 
Felt the real pressure 
of injustice 
And tried 
their best to address it 
In the world
But majority of unjust people 
Continue closing  their ears and 
Did not understand them 
Reason why injustice still a song
In many countries. 
Today some people still occupying 
some  top government posts 
Which they are not qualify for 
And they  can not well  defend 
them
But protected 
by some friends 
or relatives. 
Many qualified 
people are in the streets 
Crying here 
And there.  

Why injustice till now? 
Whenever they get piece jobs , 
They are always  exploited ...
I mean cheap payment.
Injustice still smelling in South Africa and 
few countries where discrimination still
directing minds and thoughts
of some people. 
You can still find some  grade ten directors 
Of some  big companies  while some workers
 are masters.
