Maya Angelou wasn’t a medical doctor, either. She wasn’t even a PhD, EdD or any other kind of academic. She called herself “Dr Maya Angelou” based on having been awarded an honorary doctor of letters by some liberal college. I suspect King didn’t insist on calling himself “Dr King,” or insist that others do so in the way jill and her flunkies are doing.
Face it, if it comes from the left, and once had any meaning or substance before being co-opted by the left, it’s now meaningless.
Chris Wallace talks about her title when everything is a dumpster fire. What a POS tool.
