Stanley David Levison, rich salesman, political intellectual and uber southern commie.
THIS is the super lefty who first recognized MLK's other-wordly oratory powers, later writing many of his speeches. He hated Christianity but as a politically ruthless activist, saw that religion in the southern poor could be weaponized as a vehicle to transform America.
Levison sent King to a school house that was converted into a training academy for up and coming communists.
Originally Hoover was NOT interested in surveilling MLK, it was LEVISON whom he despised. MLK got swept up in the net originally cast for Levison.
At several junctures in private, Levison voiced contempt for his protege MLK.
