RE: This Man Revealed Martin Luther King Jr. Was Killed By Gov't Agencies - My Interview with William Pepper

in #news7 years ago

Powerful interview Lee! I learned about this case just a couple years ago after reading Michelle Alexander's book "The New Jim Crow: Mass Incarceration in the Age of Colorblindness."

I haven't been able to think about our national MLK Day holiday the same since. So the same government that had him murdered is going to honor him? Honestly it just makes me think that MLK Day exists so that the government can tell us that he stood solely for identity politics and erase his message of economic equality. What do you think?
