tbh MLK fed the black community to the wolves knowingly

but this is still disrespectful though

I'm on my phone n my bats gna die so I'll keep it short

The civil rights movement was funded by Jews and people "behind" MLK. Google Stan Levison.... Those in power stood to make more money from an integrated society and also pacify black liberation.
In FBI documents released on king it says they were bribing him with his marital affairs etc. So Yh he was an agent

Ultimately he did come good but it was too late. When they realised they cudnt control what they created anymore they killed him. The riverside speech sealed his fate

Martin Luther King the poor boy... is under the inluence of the Foxes. I should say under the 'control' of the foxes, and has been used by the foxes to lead the poor sheep... right to slaughter- Malcolm X

be skeptical of the "black heroes" the media give you mlk, mandela, obama etc

This is one of my favorite clips of MLK (a side that is not commonly brought up in the "popular narrative" pushed out by the media):

MLK is no puppet. He stood for workers rights and he even wanted to create a second bill of rights: where every American has the right to a living wage.

MLK is the only non-president ever to have a national holiday after him. He changed our society.

Bet you hard-headed posters never knew that about him. All you think that he was some kind of pushover for white people and never for black power

Don't try to talk sense to them breh. All his accomplisments and inspirational speeches get thrown out the window if you're not on that Malcolm X separate black society steez and you are nothing but a porch monkey for the white man, even if you are trying to keep blacks from being stepped on in society. Hell, apparently even people like Rosa Parks are c00ns cuz she wanted to fight segregation by sitting on the front seat.

We can't look at this issue in black and white. We need to have a healthy mix of ideas, to realize that both a society where all groups can mingle and share ideas, and we have the choice to create communities that retain awareness of one's own race and identity. Both MLK and Malcolm X were fighting the good fight, and we can't let this argument divide out race any longer.

to this. A lot of people who talk about pro-black shyt don't really love their black people like that. They more focused on hating on the white man more. When hatred is overcome by love, you become the enemy. MLK and Malcolm loved their people more than these emotionally-unstable militants could ever know.

No doubt, and they really show themselves when start attacking their own kind or start acting snobby because you're not on the whole "I want nothing to do with those cacs" vibe. Most of the time, I just wish they were just trolling or playing devil's advocate, but some of the responses really do show otherwise

Cats really don't do their research on MLK and what he was striving for towards the end of his life.
