John Lewis was following cracka ass liberal orders to not fight white people. The non violent strategy had nothing to do with MLK on some Ghandi shyt. Cac liberals would have pulled financial support if they harmed white people literally trying to kill them.
When MLK did speeches in the south he had to call up the Deacons because they were well known amongst white supremacists for being drillers. MLK couldn't even be known to have rolled with any Black people that carried guns. His own bodyguards weren't allowed to carry in fear that the white liberals up north would find out and stop bankrolling him. A lot of you nikkaz are an embarrassment for not even knowing your own history.
John Lewis was an athlete that followed crackaz orders even though they could have cost him his life. Ask yourself why you didn't learn about people like Robert F.Williams or the Deacons who were all bout that life but you know about a nikka who purposely got his ass whipped?? The nikka that got his ass whooped is y'alls hero but dudes who threw down with the police are forgotten in history. You nikkaz are fukking clowns.
You have to be ignorant to believe this shyt.
Who told you that? Where are their receipts?

You know that such a dumb claim wouldn't work in Gandhi's direction cause Gandhi was on White people's necks the whole time and drove the whole crew out of his country entirely. And there are clear, obvious receipts that MLK Jr. was
stanning Gandhi from at least 1950 (when he heard a talk at Morehouse from Dr. Mordecai Johnson, who had just visited India) and had connected nonviolence with his own Biblical principles from at least that early.
Gandhi had already been writing for The Crisis from at least 1929 at the request of W.E.B. DuBois. Interest in Gandhi was FAR greater in the Black community than in the White community. Gandhi was in direct communication with W.E.B. DuBois for 30 years at least from as early as when they did a racial equality conference together in 1911. John Dube was neighbors with Gandhi, S.S. Tema was close to Gandhi. Marcus Garvey and Gandhi sent letters and books back-and-forth to each other, as did George Washington Carver. Hubert Harrison called him "the greatest, most unselfish and powerful leader of the modern world" Bildad Kaggia called Gandhi his inspiration, Jomo Kenyatta said that he cherished Gandhi, Nnamdi Azikiwe said that history has proven Gandhi's ways were correct, Albert Luthuli said that with Gandhi the Africans and the Indians joined together in struggle, Kenneth Kaunda said that Gandhi's ways could be the answer, Joshua Nkomo said that Gandhi showed them that independence could be more than just a dream, Kwame Nkrumah mourned his death and credited him with inspiring him to extend the struggle to all Africa. Aminu Kano, Nelson Mandela, Desmond Tutu, and Julius Nyerere all called Gandhi an inspiration.
And on top of that, MLK Jr's ideological commitment to nonviolence was deeply rooted in his own Biblical principles. You can see how he invokes the Sermon on the Mount and the principles of the Gospel from the very beginning. You do NOT risk your life as often as MLK Jr. did for some damn White people money if you don't believe exactly what you say and the reasons behind why you are doing it.
White people from the North didn't even like MLK Jr. like you're making it out to be. To attribute all the accomplishments and direction of the CRM to some Yankee Whites is like a fukking Southern White Confederate conspiracy theory, claiming that Black people can't do nothing by themselves and if they're accomplishing anything it must be because Northern Whites are secretly pulling the strings from behind the scenes. That's some total bullshyt.
edit: One of the funniest parts of that whole conspiracy is that it's based on the idea that Northern White liberals didn't want to see Southern White racists get harmed, as if they hadn't recently been killing each other by the hundreds of thousands with no reservations. Northern White liberals and Southern White racists could give a fukk about each other.
