As a survivor of the MLK assassination, white liberals have forgotten that very few of Americans approved of Dr. King at the time of his death, they’ve now turned him into a martyr.

It makes me uncomfortable to see him used politically when 97% of white people don’t have a black friend. 💔

One for the history books, for sure.

Our day of reckoning of facing truth……sadly only those on this platform understand……there are millions of Americans who have given up on principles, on truth, on a democratic future…..instead settling for grievance revenge, oligarchy and white supremacy

"We have work to do".... we certainly do. And don't forget John Lewis either, we need to engage in lots of good trouble.

Please take a moment and honor a truly incredible person especially on a day when a truly narcissistic person takes over the country AGAIN!

When I was a Memphis cop every year I would go to the Loraine Motel with many others to honor his legacy.

Thank you Dr. King for your vision and sacrifice.

This is part of a MLK speech. The part where he says he is afraid we are integrating into a burning house, makes so much sense today.

Biden had pardoned his son already, however, he probably knows something fishy is coming because on his last day, he pardoned his entire family.

More pertinent today is Rachel Maddow’s Prequel. Followed by Sinclair Lewis’s It Can’t Happen Here.

Please, Professor, do your best to make sure it doesn’t.

I guess this will be my last post, as I am leaving promptly at noon.

To clarify, I meant I was leaving X, not Bluesky.

You're a calming, knowledgeable voice in the insanity of these times. I'm grateful to you for helping me remember the constitution and dreams our founders had!
