Dr King's message is very clear- forgiveness, bring people together, tolerance and healing wounds. Dr King's message is God's message. The reason why we have a national holiday honoring Dr King's message is because it's the right path.
The wrong path is racism, not treating others with the same respect and dignity, you expect to receive yourself.
When a black leader promotes Dr King's message, he is villified and either destroyed by the lliberal media or ignored. Look what happened to Bill Cosby when he opposed the race baiters and exploiters of minorities- Jackson and Sharpton.
Liberals base their cause on opposing racism, yet they support Jessie Jackson and Al Sharpton and others who exploit the victims of racial conflict, for their personal gain of political power and money.
I guess my real question is whether there is any integrity in liberals to denounce these false leaders and BEGIN promoting Dr King's message?

Notice I said, "Dr. King's message", I didn't say Dr. King or refer to his human faults and atrributes. Read between the lines- liberalism is corrupt and no longer is committed to racial equality, far from it.

Dr. King wanted man to be judges in his character not the color of his skin.
Sharpton and Jackson want a man to be judged on the color of his skin and not the content of his character.
Memebers of the Duke Lacrosse team were pre-judged because they were white. The stripper that accused them was believed by Jackson and Sharpton because she was black. I have not heard them coming down on her since the truth came out. I have not seen them on TV condemning what she did to these "white boys".
Dr. King wanted equality and color blindness. That is what most rational people want. These race-baiters do not want equality. They want money and power and are using black people to get it.

It's sad, really. Every word that came from Dr King's mouth was pure wisdom. As far as I know, he always took the right side. Sharpton and Jackson look for incidents where it appears blacks suffer, then they take their side. They are racist; I dislike them. I was worried that their actions in Jena would shift attention away from what was happening, and put it on them. I would not have had that concern with Dr. King.
MLK had other messages too. His message on promoting racial equality is well known, but some of his others concerning bias and faith are worth their weight in gold too. I don't hear any of that from Sharpton and Jackson, it's all racism this or racism that, when often they are the ones guilty of racism.

For the answers above.
Being race neutral is fantastic. But if the minority unemployment rates are double those of whites, if the average pay is significantly less than whites, if the rate of incarceration is significantly higher and the rate of education significantly lower - that demonstrates something.
There are a couple conclusions that can be readily drawn from such a scenario as it presently exists in the US - No. 1 minorities are lazy and stupid. No. 2 - Discirmination exists. Of course, other multi-faceted explanations exist.
I think that Dr. King would have strongly argued for the 2nd proposition and would have supported ordering our society accordingly.

it truly is astounding how in conflict the 'new' civil rights activist is from Dr. King's thinking. they're making a finished cluster f**ok of his message and his 'dream'. And to think of that quite a few of those adult males marched with King. that's...nicely, that's truly very unhappy.

None of the politicians will say a word against Sharpton or Jackson in fear of drawing the ire of the black voter.

it behooves me to think that so many of our people who supposedly hate Communism still support any thing M,L,K, would say, we all know he was a commie along with Nelson Mandella Robert McGuvey , tutu, and so many others that you adore, the F,B,I, has film of all of then attending communist training centers both in Russia and China, and would have arrested them and convicted them but, because of our liberal politicians they stopped him, even President Johnson admitted this "IT WOULD CAUSE WIDE SPREAD RIOTING AND CIVIL DISTURBANCES" damned sure is strange to me that this group could be above the law< why??
and when did America allow some criminals and theives to back them down?? or was this just another way the Zionist found to weaken the moral fabric of America?

look the whole world has been fighting over this same stuff since creation.
Down through the ages all the major religions have tried to wipe each other out at one time or another.
Now here's the real kick.
I was taught as a child that GOD is love.
How can we screw that up.
But we have.

MLK basically believed in being race neutral not in favoring minorities or giving them special protections- look at the person not the color of their skin basically but that message unites rather than divides and unity does not advance the far lefts agenda- they need us to be divided
United we stand, divided we fall.

MLK also envisioned a "colorblind society" where "content of character" (i.e. merit) was more important than skin color. Liberals, of course, embrace the antithesis of this concept by their support for affirmative action.

Using the word 'liberal' as pejorative is in itself a perversion of language and politics. Until we can get a grip on that, Dr King's message will never be understood.
