Martin Luther King Jr. meant by "the arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice." With this quote, King was referring to the Civil Rights movement. He means that although it will take a long time for there to be equality and peace between colored people and whites. He mentions how it will take a while, which refers to how there were people who opposed the movement and also how government action can be slow.
