The number of folks who misunderstand the Rev. Dr. due to white folks’ sanitizing of his radical beliefs, ideas, etc. for propaganda is extremely high.
Yes, we were indeed integrated into a burning house. To pretend King was liked, softer is to ignore his words.

The use of King’s image, articulation, etc. out of context benefits institutions upholding white supremacist neoliberal values BC so many of us refuse to read & comprehend him for ourselves.
Y’all have been duped by the intentional pitting of X against King.

And worst of all?
Y’all eat up the lack of context and debate it.
King and X’s goals, visions, and understanding(s) of whiteness were more similar than different. Their articulation and belief in how to get to the end game varied.
Don’t just take my word for it. #MLKDay

That white folks are behaving as they are ON #MLKDay makes sense. And it would make even more sense if you understood King’s writings as a whole, arc, etc.
Especially the ones about social class. 🙃🙃
