Then why don't you tell us what really happened? Tell us that the march didn't end in chaos. Tell us that no windows were smashed. Tell us that no one got arrested. Tell us that no one was killed by police. Tell us that Dr. King was pleased as punch with "that glorious day." Tell us that the march didn't become an excuse for the FBI to spread stories trying to discredit Dr. King. Tell us that the mayor of Memphis was so moved by the march that he immediately caved to the strikers' demands. Come on, you claim you were there. Tell us about it.
Tell us that the National Civil Rights Museum has it wrong, the National Archives has it wrong, the King Center has it wrong, and the Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. Research and Education Institute has it wrong. Tell us that every single available source has it wrong.
But you have it right.
did it ever cross your mind that those sources might know just as LITTLE as YOU do??? or that the writers might just have "an AGENDA" and or were trying to CHANGE the "record"??? (the FBI & the MPD certainly DID!)
better you ask me, who was THERE, than somebody who was NOT! (at least i was just a participant & a 20YO student, who had NO agenda except getting a decent living wage for a bunch of sanitation workers & their families.)
