By the way. It is my belief that the only black leader of that era with any integrity was Malcom X, a Muslim. He was a far more dangerous leader than any other to the establishment because he preached independence and an aversion to any government help. His message was that blacks already had freedom and merely had to excercise it. A far cry from the "crawl to the government and beg for your freedom" message that was being touted by King and later Jackson.

Where your sympathies lie isn't exactly news, FemiFog :). But why do you think it's of interest?

You have that right

King was very socialistic leaning

Of course there were those friends of hillary, the black panthers, at about the same era.
