as to the rest, there are COSTS to every human activity, which cannot be predicted. IF all we did was worry about that sort of thing, there would be NO PROGRESS at all.

The march accomplished nothing except to allow Dr. King's enemies to discredit him. It allowed the FBI to become more active in attempting to undermine his position, putting out a blind press release that said, that that the "result of King's famous espousal of nonviolence was vandalism, looting and riot." It allowed Hoover, the next day, to authorize a program "to publicize hypocrisy on the part of Martin Luther King." The fact that, when violence broke out, Dr. King was taken to a different hotel than where he was staying was even exploited by the FBI in another blind item, this one to the black press: "The fine Hotel Lorraine in Memphis is owned and patronized exclusively by Negroes," stated the propaganda sheet, but King had chosen instead "the plush Holiday Inn Motel, white owned, operated and almost exclusively white patronized."
It was only his assassination a week later that caused LBJ to appoint his Undersecretary of Labor to come to Memphis to mediate the dispute, which STILL didn't end for another two weeks. As for getting the strikers noticed, the strike had been going on since Feb. 12. Picketing had been going on since Feb. 19. Thousands of tons of garbage were piling up in the streets. The strike was national news. Believe me, it was noticed. But it took King's murder to make the mayor and city council budge, though.
