Perhaps. But this article, like so many others like it fails to mention one of key points about his legacy. That is, Dr King was assassinated not while he protested for civil rights (in the early to mid 60s), but later during his quest for financial justice and mitigating income inequality.
Bobby Kennedy met the same fate, while also questioning wealth distribution.

- ashwagary 5y agoEconomic justice and civil rights are inextricably tied in discussions about US history.
- chiefalchemist 5y agoYes. But the perception is King was assassinated for and during his civil rights efforts. That simply not the case. To believe otherwise is to malign history.
