Go to your public library and try to find out if they have the book authored by Michael Eric Dyson’s titled, “I May Not Get There With You: The True Martin Luther King, Jr (2000)”.
Dyson, who once referred to King as “arguably, the greatest American ever produced on our native soil,” documents the activist’s sexual exploits. King was a serial womanizer, sleeping with dozens of women behind his wife’s back.
Dyson, a professor of sociology at Georgetown University, also writes about King’s penchant for plagiarism. For decades, King’s critics claimed that much of the civil rights leader’s academic writings were plagiarized. Dyson tells us, in no uncertain terms, that King regularly engaged in acts of intellectual piracy.
As new facts are revealed, one can always re-evaluate one’s position.
Meh - same as saying Joan of Arc was a hooker.
Ya just can’t trash martyred saints.
Too many people still making a dime from their death.....sad to say.
The allegations against Dr. King are as shocking as they are unfathomable.”
Strikes one and two right there
In a taped conversation between Jackie Kennedy & Arthur Schlesinger in 1964, Jackie accurately described MLKjr as a “phony” and “terrible man.” IIRC, some government source (FBI?) had let her listen to recordings of MLK mocking JFK’s death & funeral, as well as MLK engaged in his other deplorable behavior.
The real MLKjr, the “phony” and “terrible man,” has been lost to history. No one cares. He’s been replaced by a fictional MLKjr who was a saintly man, martyred for the cause of civil rights.
Men can do great things and still be horn dogs. Most of the Founders, for example.
Unlike today’s alleged civil rights leaders I believe he truly tried to heal the racial divide in the US. He probably did commit some sinful acts unlike our pure as the driven snow political leaders and lame street media gurus.
That story sure got shut down quickly! No one’s talking about it right now. Some were saying they couldn’t publish ‘unverified reports’. That never stopped them before.
The article was digested in the news cycle quicker than a bad Taco Bell dinner. Maybe someone will be brave enough to bring it up live on the air, where it cannot be bleeped out.
They won’t ever get invited back to that show.
This info goes back to shortly after JFK was killed.
Why are they releasing it now?
To “normalize” the sick behavior of Biden and other rat POTUS candidates!
I’m not sure what purpose all this serves. It’s a bunch of he said she said. After all, people lie about what they had for breakfast.
Anything FBI says, you have to take with a grain of salt.
I remember a documentary, recounting the shooter’s repeated trips to Canada, and his contacts with apparent RCMP, which echoes the Five Eyes operations of our current day.
Where is the net children!
He was a Republican!
Hey, lets keep it fair. I’m “uncomfortable” seeing that name on street signs and statues ... time to take them all down and erase this history too. (/sarc ... or maybe not?)
What is interesting is as King's star has risen politicians and professional ethnic agitators have been acting as the foot soldiers in a long Gramscian campaign to delegitimize, stigmatize and eventually erase much of what has been our national pantheon. The clearest example is the purging of Robert E Lee. Until about 1990 Lee was one of the most admired figures in US history. I am not going to provide the reasons for this at length other than to say he was for many in all parts of the nation the national knight without reproach, the American Bayard with better personal morals. Both Presidents Eisenhower and Truman displayed Lee's portrait in the Oval Office and Truman chose a large portrait of Lee to hang in the foyer of his presidential library. perhaps a final comment on Lee's relationship with the civilian head of government Jefferson Davis compared to Truman's relationship with MacArthur.
In the city near me a very large statue of Lee was removed because the mayor said it represented part of a past that needed to be forgotten in the new borderless, culturally fluid world. Perhaps so but I can only wonder what a society that would purge Robert E Lee for ‘being on the wrong side of history’ represents by adulating a man who at the least appears deeply flawed and morally and ethically challenged to the highest degree.
What did Reagan think of King
Not what Mark Levin and Sean Hannity and Ben Shapiro do I can promise you
And he was a King contemporary not them
People are so stupid about blacks
Boy not much brings out the stupids like a King bend the knee thread
And what about King’s pals Hunter Pitts O’Dell and Stanley Levison, and the Highlander Folk School? Even mainstream Democrats like John Kennedy were bothered by those King associations.
Other than the rape incident none of this is new. Anyone who used to read the old Human Events (Reagan’s favorite!) has known about this stuff for decades. It’s all ignored by our current crop of celebrity conservatives, who love being first in line to show their fealty to St MLK the pious.
King’s politics were rapidly moving far left in the last several years of his life. Conservatives trying to claim this individual as one of theirs is delusional.
If he watched a woman get raped and did nothing about it then he is a dirtbag. It wouldn’t matter if it was him, Trump or Reagan any man who would allow a woman to be raped is as low as they go. There is no proof so it doesn’t matter at this point.
