I agree. Donald Trump wouldnt make a pimple on MLK's assCorrect and neither could any of those that still support Trump, I started this thread to give Trump supporters who always claim like Trump they are not racist, to prove it by talking about Dr King and the good of the civil rights movement. Notice they are silent but had no problem spewing the good of Roy Moore or Jeff Sessions or Trump himself.
Donald Trump and a whole lot of his followers are deplorables, traitors and Anti American Originally Posted by themystic

Most blacks I know that were a part of Dr King, privatley feel as if they failed the black community
Dr King did his part, the blacks didnt do thiers
Whats happen to the blacks is the blacks fault, ( and maybe the meandering little faggott Japo Manville and his assorted ner do wells) Originally Posted by themystic

So how am I suppose to appreciate something that hasn't made any progress?

The opportunity and progress of the black man in 1960s versus today are incredible. Ask any black man. Yes the blacks did fuck the opportunity up. It could have been so much more

At that time the U of Texas had exactly zero black athletes on scholarship on the football team. Arkansas had zero. SWC teams had just started recruitment of black athletes. The SEC had 1 black player in 1967 and 1 in 1968.

These self-aggrandizing "black leaders" have kept the bulk of blacks in virtual slavery, stoked hatred, turned king's dream into racial one-up-manship, used extortion tactics to raise their money, excuse bad conduct based on race, falsely accuse and line their pockets in MLK's name
Reminds me of a couple lines from the song pappa was a rolling stone

In the mid to late 60s high schools in Texas and throughout the south were not integrated. Blacks could not drink at the same water fountains as whites, eat in the same restaurants, use the same rest room facilities, sleep in the same hotels. live in the same neighborhoods, etc.
I would say that conditions today are quite a bit different than 50 years ago regarding race relations in this country. Does racism still exist in this country? Hell yes. Every once in a while blatant racism rears its ugly head. But anyone who does not see the difference between the 1960s and today regarding race relations is blind. Thank you Dr. King.
