MARTIN LUTHER KING ON THE WHITE MODERATE


“I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to ‘order’ than to justice; who constantly says, ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action’; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom.”

-Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., “Letter from a Birmingham Jail”

If Martin Luther King were alive today I think maybe he'd look at Bernie aand 'nem, see the how hard the Bernie Bros tried to cover for the Trumpthuglicans as "white working class" instead of "white working racists" and know for a fact that a lot of today's white hard-left isn't any better than yesterday's white moderates.

I find it incredible that Trump was able to be as racist as he is before the white mainstream news casters were finally willing to call Trump's words and the man himself "a racist" on January 11, 2018 not "racially insensitive" and 'not racially charged" but a "racist."


...after having ignored almost all of Black American Women for an entire year.

Ninety-four to Niney-six percent of black women voted for Hillary Clinton when most of us either had no feeling for Hillary at all and a lot of younger black women flat out hate her for the "super-predator" comments  (because they are unaware that most of all of white people loved that remark in polls in the 1990s...or she never would have said it)

Black women voted to block Trump because we knew that the ugly orange is either a closet KKK member, same as his Daddy, or just happens to see the world in the very same way as the average KKK member. 

And the people who couldn't see that in him were not confused. There was nothing to be confused about.
