CLARITY IN CLOUDED TIMES WITH SOME HELP FROM THE REVEREND DOCTOR MARTIN LUTHER KING JR

We, Ourselves, of The Collective, noting the bigotry and nativism rampant from Conservatives in America today share a quote that must inspire Progressives on the cusp of the most important election of your lives. No longer is the Oval Office a place of bragging rights for one group over another it is about the salvation of America from a the dark rocks along the shore upon which your democracy will crash if the base of the Conservatives gets its way. We, offer you this inspiration from Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King Jr.

“Courage is an inner resolution to go forward despite obstacles.
Cowardice is submissive surrender to circumstances.
Courage breeds creativity; Cowardice represses fear and is mastered by it.
Cowardice asks the question, is it safe?
Expediency ask the question, is it politic?
Vanity asks the question, is it popular?

But, conscience ask the question, is it right? And there comes a time when we must take a position that is neither safe, nor politic, nor popular, but one must take it because it is right.”

    Born in 1929, King was the son of a Black preacher known at the time only as “Daddy King.” “Daddy King” named his son Michael. In 1935, “Daddy King” had an inspiration to name himself after the Protestant reformer Martin Luther. He declared to his congregation that henceforth they were to refer to him as “Martin Luther King” and to his son as “Martin Luther King, Jr.” None of this name changing was ever legalized in court. “Daddy” King’s son’s real name is to this day Michael King.

    King’s Brazen Cheating

    We read in Michael Hoffman’s “Holiday for a Cheater”:

    The first public sermon that King ever gave, in 1947 at the Ebenezer Baptist Church, was plagiarized from a homily by Protestant clergyman Harry Emerson Fosdick entitled “Life is What You Make It,” according to the testimony of King’s best friend of that time, Reverend Larry H. Williams.

    The first book that King wrote, “Stride Toward Freedom, – -was plagiarized from numerous sources, all unattributed, according to documentation recently assembled by sympathetic King scholars Keith D. Miller, Ira G. Zepp, Jr., and David J. Garrow.

    And no less an authoritative source than the four senior editors of “The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr.- – (an official publication of the Martin Luther King Center for Nonviolent Social Change, Inc., whose staff includes King’s widow Coretta), stated of King’s writings at both Boston University and Crozer Theological Seminary: “Judged retroactively by the standards of academic scholarship, [his writings] are tragically flawed by numerous instances of plagiarism…. Appropriated passages are particularly evident in his writings in his major field of graduate study, systematic theology.”

      That’s funny most of the conservatives I read try to co-opt King into being a registered Republican. Must be nice to have it both ways.

      No one here answers to you Bill you are the one with bigotry and made up facts. But keep talking man I’d rather you exercise your first amendment rights than your second amendment rights!

      • This is a response lacking any intelligence or reasoning.
