Ferguson was the spark, but Garner was “it.”

Here is where I am quite sure Reverend King and Bayard Rustin would be planning not just statements and gestures, but boycotts. The recording of Garner’s death has the clear, potent and inarguable authority of the Birmingham newsreels. We must use that. Yes, use—we are trying to create change, not just perform.

Onward.
Huzzah. For MLK’s foibles, I think that he would be very concerned with the truth, and thus it is not meet to drag his name further through the mud in this fashion, in the name of lies.
