Innovation often occurs when connections are made between two or more very different concepts or things.

For example, consider how musical artists have sampled the famous King "I Have a Dream speech." An example includes a Russian duo who put the speech against techno music in the 190s This song came to serve as a rallying cry in the midst of social upheaval in the country.

A mash-up of techno music and a famous speech civil rights can mean something innovative. Dr. King himself was also innovative. He finds much of the inspiration for the civil rights movement in the nonviolent philosophy of Gandhi Mohatma, a man who lived on the other side of the world and who died when King was a young man.

The American civil rights movement had elements of not only the beliefs of the nonviolent resistance of Gandhi but also of Christianity, spiritual music and African-American. All these elements helped the carrier gain momentum and pave the way for important civil rights for African Americans.
