“Washington and Lincoln are far more worthy, and I can tell you neither one of them would approve of such sort of cult worship.”

I like him less and less the more I hear about his life. Far from the moderate Black freedom-fighter and platitude factory he is portrayed as, he was in fact a dangerous radical, proposing things like “basic income” aka free money and attacking US foreign policy as “purveying violence” .

100% agree with DJ, take his name off of the holiday and just make it “Civil Rights Day”.
