I didn't read the whole thing but I did stop at conspiracy theory. And I was going to put in my last post it's not a conspiracy theory when facts are out!
You don't want to do the work and do your research.. If your not going to research then don't say nothing at all.. I'm not stuck in my ignorance, I once was though.
This is the start, who's mlk standing next to in this photo? http://www.tabletmag.com/wp-content/files_mf/mlk620.jpg
Another one. http://www.momentmag.com/wp-content/...d-Blumberg.jpg
This just the start
Bet you won't find one with Malcolm X standing next to them or getting a check cut by them!

MLK fought for Black lives in fact All lives of the oppressed minority....the Power Broker in the photo is the power broker in the photo from a long lineage of those who ruled the world...MLK's work was pure because 1.) he led the grass roots revolution and 2.) He was killed by a white man.
Conversely (and I love Malcolm X I'm more of a fan of brother X than MLK) but Malcolm was killed by his own folks....and we all know Farrakhan played a role in it...but nevertheless Malcolm had changed at the end (after his pilgrimage to Mecca) he saw what MLK saw (inclusiveness) and was starting to preach some of it and he was killed for it by his own people. So that pic your showing means little especially in that context. MLK gave his life for the cause and some still serving in Congress today witnessed the beatings and jailings as they went through it as well. Yes sometimes you meet power brokers and those of influence...The real question is what do you do with it...Showing me a pic and getting bent out of shape over it is not intellectual to me..not by a long shot..it's all about context...In fact it's a good thing he was able to meet with Power Brokers because if his Leadership abilities... He never changed, he never sold out, he fought for rights until he was murdered plain and simple..it doesn't who cut him a check or who he took a pic with so as long as fought for the rights that we enjoy today....
If Malcolm had not been cut down by his own (no less) he would have done even more wonderful things..But Malcolm didn't preach peace....so he doesn't get credit in the eyes of the majority...however what he preached was hard cold reality that any real man faced with lives by...even to this day...Most white people that hate Malcom X don't even realize they live to this day in their personal lives by what he preached...but when you're uneducated you don't know that.
So I appreciate you showing me pics but unless you're willing to take a deeper dive in to context surrounding those pics...it means nothing I don't reason like that....I am a self proclaimed Engineer....and like engineering and reverse engineering things. ;-)
