    I was 14 that summer. A friend came over that evening before he was shot. We're talking about radio traffic on the HAM network saying MLK was going to be killed. I don't know what I was suppose to do, I was very troubled, and saddened. In recent years I learned he was snuffed out in the Hospital! THERE IS A THEM.

      Also, there's no guarantee that you can change anyone's mind. You got folks who were born in the Jim Crow era who are STILL racist to this day. Wake-up call: *you cant change that. *
      You need independence & power so you can live free on your own terms first, regardless of whether someone sees you as an equal or not. TF I look like waiting for validation from another human, JUST to be seen as an "equal"?? Fuck that, I'm not praying my whole life for someone else to give me the most basic decency.

Most racists are ignorant and were raised around their own people in their own land and never experienced people who were different and now we live in a global society and everyone is forced to interact with people who are different.

Black folks been writing & preaching for centuries about trying to be seen as equals, yet systematic racism & segregation is still a thing. & sure, you could make the argument we've made "progress", but many of those so-called progressive moves were just economical decisions to help the state prevent collateral damage from riots, or from trying to lose a war (re: Lincoln & the Civil War), not out of a genuine love for us black folk.
      If it were that easy to change racists' minds, slavery & Jim Crow would've never gone on for as long as they did (but also, slavery was never fully abolished, it just got moved to the prison industrial complex under the 13th amendment.)
      Many free black folks & enslaved black folks died without ever being seen as an equal by non-black people. You can go your whole life trying to change racists' minds all you want, waiting for other people to validate you..you tell me how it works out for you while I work on empowering my people & helping us get tangible opportunities to clean up our communities & our countries & getting tf outta this hellscape.

      Same here. We were taught about the Civil Rights Movement both at home & in school. Unfortunately IMHO the message & goals of Dr King are being suppressed/ignored by corporate media. Listened to 6 hours of Malcolm X speeches on cassette over 30 years ago after studying him. He had to be the greatest orator of the 20th century. I will always believe that protection of Dr King was compromised after he spoke of opposition to the war in Vietnam.

Whiteness is just so fragile it can't take Black people standing up for their lives or rights to ANY degree. See: the Black Lives Matter movement and the "All Lives Matter" panic response. It's pathetic and embarrassing. Conditions for whites are about to get bad in terms of poverty, hunger, etc due to COVID and the economic hardships that are coming. Maybe we should've listened and had empathy for our Black brothers and sisters all these years. You tried to tell us. 1 in 6 children is dealing with hunger; we just passed 300,000 deaths from COVID.

      I was hoping this was cut together from more complete footage that I could look up, but no luck so far.
      Some stuff from the original airing got cut out of this clip that didn't really add anything - there were a bunch of pretty cringeworthy moments where the original producers just kinda... stuffed in some upbeat music and clips of black musicians and athletes. Not sure if they were trying to lighten the mood or what, but it was pretty jarring! lol
      Found a transcript here, and this is where I got a couple of names that weren't explicitly listed in captions:
      search.alexanderstreet.com/preview/work/bibliographic_entity%7Cvideo_work%7C3212739
      I'm taking it on faith that they're accurate. I recognize some big figures like Fannie Lou Hamer and Rev. Jesse Jackson, but wasn't familiar with others like Hosea Williams and John Singleton.
      I've heard The Hon. Elijah Mohammad referred to a LOT but have never actually seen an image of him or heard him speak, so that was a cool surprise!
      The above is actually the full transcript for the entire 1968 production, I guess. What's featured in AfroMarxist's video is from part 7 of 7 from that year.
      If you want to look at the transcript yourself, you'll find everything in this clip starting at 6:03:35.

      MLK’s form of non violent resistance was well supported by the U.S. government despite their eventual killing of them. There were many FBI informants tasked with infiltrating black groups & pushing a nonviolent & integrationist stance. But when it comes to MLK’s critique of capitalism, his anti Vietnam was, anti imperialism, antiwar views, & desire for wealth redistribution & universal basic income…They basically suppressed everything he stood for & used the parts of his ideology that were convenient to him, after literally killing him…. The others were right. Any lack of achievement on their part can be largely attributed to the fact their government was trying to destroy their progress & kill them when they did show progress. Martin Luther King died at a Sanitation striker’s rally helping people secure better wages… he was a Democratic socialist & that is why the leaders of this country killed him, brutally

      And on the other hand, rebrand having a criminal track record as a badge of honor so that a self hating thug becomes a community folk hero and a beacon of masculinity.

    God gives us a Leader and a template on how to tear down walls of inequalities and segregation - but like this panel, we tear down and analyze the Leader! Why do we do this to our anointed Leaders whom God sends??? Who and what benefits from this? Simply, Grow ...build on what Dr. King left us. Look what guns/violence have done to our own community and hoods from 1968 to 2022! Collaboration of ALL - including ALL-For All, reduces the fear of retaliation-revenge. Planning evil for one is always a downfall for humanity.

    MLK realized that the black community could not out-muscle White America in America - or even worldwide. So he took a non-violent and a legislative approach to equality gratifying that these two footholds would lead to an economic leverage for the black community. It was and still is a slow process but economic power is the most influential prowess in this nation and the surest measurement for equality (or equity). This was the end goal for MLK: economic freedom for the black community. Debating how to achieve this means nothing without the compromise for unity amongst the black diaspora - MLK knew this too. To hear some of these activist offer divisive tactics against MLK instead of unifying metrics and accomplishments was kind of disappointing but it does create opportunities to further debates about how, seemingly, the black community has become more corporatized ie more violent since his passing.

    The key word is ORGANISE. Mobilization should only be done towards Organizing people for massive, sustainable action. What caused the collapse of the movement after Dr. King's assassination is cause the organization part wasn't properly done or owned by the Afro-Americans, it dependended, to a great extent to funding from without the black movement and communities. Don't get it twisted brothers and sisters, no non-black is for your total political and most importantly economic freedom and advancement. Do you, segregation should be the first step. Just needs a little logic and common sense. Don't settle with inappropriate behaviour!

    Kings approach some agree and some don't. Especially back then when Malcolm was around. Being that black's only made up of 11% of the population in the States then, waging war would have been futile. Pick up weapons and fight back seems logical but does it make sense overall. King was brilliant on the civil rights road to equality imo. Then the Black Panther's came along and was sadly extinguished because the cops was offing most of them left and right. Even though his way persevered it came at several cost and his legacy recognize that today. I would've loved to have met him in person.
