MLK to his credit was against Affirmative Action—reluctantly he agreed with the understanding that it should last only 10 years. It should have been done in 1973.

I wasn’t aware of that. Thanks for the mention.

My take has been that King wouldn’t approve of a lot of things that took place since his death.

I think he’d have a quite a bit to say to blacks today, not all of it very nice.

The out of wedlock birth rates and amount of abortions taking place would bother him IMO. They have sold their birthright.

Look many whites have done this as well, so I’m not singling out blacks other than to address the people whose plight King wanted to improve.

Things being introduced in the early 60s that he might have thought were going to help, have instead been a blight on his people. It’s really to bad too
