this is a malcolm x question.who were the three reds?

Answer 1

There are two references of Martin Luther King and "three reds":

One is of him at the Highlander School in Tennesee. The communists are:
1. Abner Berry. member of the Central Committee of the Communist Party and writer for the "daily Worker."
2. Aubrey Williams, Communist Party agent and president of the Southern Conference Educational Fund (SCEF) a red front organizing blacks in southern states.
3. Miles Horton, head of the Highlander Folk School

Another "three reds" picture features Carl and Ann Braden, communist activists from Louisville KY and Dr. James Dombrowski.
