What does king compare to the unrecognized people who have been an important part of making the civil rights movement happen?

The correct answer is "the airlines ground crew".

In his Nobel Prize acceptance speech, Martin Luther King uses a metaphor in order to resemble all of the "unknown" heroes of the Civil Rights movement in the form of the ground crew who makes it possible for a jet to take off. The ground crew is not the visible part of the journey, nor will get the appreciation the Air Crew or the pilot might get, but they are equally as important in order to achieve a successful air trip. Just as all of the people who made efforts throughout the country's history to achieve equality of rights among all citizens of the United States.

excerpt from Clarence Darrow’s closing argument in Illinois v. Nathan Leopold and Richard Loeb, August 22–25, 1924

…They wanted a complete crime. There had been growing in this brain, dwarfed and twisted as every act in this case shows it was dwarfed and twisted, there had been growing this scheme, not due to any wickedness of Dickie Loeb, for he is a child. It grew as he grew; it grew from those around him; it grew from the lack of the proper training until it possessed him. He believed he could beat the police. He believed he could plan the perfect crime. He had thought of it and talked of it for years. Had talked of it as a child; had worked at it as a child, and this sorry act of his, utterly irrational and motiveless, a plan to commit a perfect crime which must contain kidnapping and there must be ransom, or else it could not be perfect, and they must get the money.

But when the sun was getting low and everything seemed most bewildering and discouraging, I found beautiful Calypso on the mossy bank of a stream, growing not in the ground but on a bed of yellow mosses in which its small white bulb had found a soft nest and from which its one leaf and one flower sprung. The flower was white and made the impression of the utmost simple purity like a snowflower. No other bloom was near it, for the bog a short distance below the surface was still frozen, and the water was ice cold. It seemed the most spiritual of all the flower people I had ever met. I sat down beside it and fairly cried for joy.
