The statement from Governor George Wallace's inaugural address that best serves as conflicting evidence for Martin Luther King Jr.'s statement, "We must come to see that no individual can live alone: no nation can live alone," is:
"you are Southerners too and brothers with us in our fight."
This statement emphasizes a sense of separation and division among individuals, which contrasts with King's call for unity and interdependence among individuals and nations. Wallace's rhetoric suggests a specific, exclusive group identity that conflicts with King’s idea of collective human solidarity.
