What would Martin Luther King have thought? What has become of his dream.
“But there is something that I must say to my people, who stand on the warm threshold which leads into the palace of justice: in the process of gaining our rightful place, we must not be guilty of wrongful deeds. Let us not seek to satisfy our thirst for freedom by drinking from the cup of bitterness and hatred.
We must forever conduct our struggle on the high plane of dignity and discipline. We must not allow our creative protest to degenerate into physical violence. Again and again, we must rise to the majestic heights of meeting physical force with soul force.
The marvelous new militancy which has engulfed the Negro community must not lead us to a distrust of all white people, for many of our white brothers, as evidenced by their presence here today, have come to realize that their destiny is tied up with our destiny, and they have come to realize that their freedom is inextricably bound to our freedom. We cannot walk alone…”

So what is the state of race relarions nearly three score years after his famous speech? After the (twice) election of Barack Obama whom most everyone who voted for him believed that his election would be the culmination of Dr. King’s dream and that America could finally put the issue of ‘race’ in the rear view mirror and henceforth everyone “would be judge by the content of their character”. But President Obama, as we know now had a different kind of transformation in mind. Instead of healing Obama picked the scab and insured that Dr. Kings dream would remain just that, unfulfilled.
Racial harmony is the last thing Progressive Democrats want. Democrats need a prepetual dependant Black underclass who will always believe that they are “victims” of “white privilege” and only the Democrat Party will “punish” those “racist” who are causing them to live in “High Crime, Rat Infested” cities. Cities that have been ruled by Democrats for decades.

Despite (or because of) the fact that Black unemployment is lowest its been in decades thanks to the Trump economy, the Democrats play the race grevience card practicaly non stop. Just like during Obama’s Presidency it is of course “RACIST” to criticise any Black politician.
The Democrat Party has cosigned Martin Luther King to the dustbin of history.
