Please research David Garrows (Pulitzer prize-winning)essay on MLK jr. It reveals MLK jr.’s sexual misconduct, extramarital affairs, orgies, solicitation of prostitutes, and the allegation that he was present during a violent rape of a Maryland churchgoer. All this came to light during the FBI taping of Kings phone calls. A columnist for Standpoint, Micheal Mosbacher, who published the essay saying that King is the Harvey Weinstein of the civil rights movement. The records associated with this information are scheduled to be released and unsealed in 2027. Yet we build gigantic statues for him. Maybe ACC should do a little more research before the celebration. Where is the Me Too Movement?
How about just Grabbing them by the Cat
Or having sex with a porn star when your wife is pregnant and then pay her to be quiet right before the 2016 election
Or burying your first wife on the first hole of your golf course so you won’t have to pay property taxes
MLK did that too ? Im sorry I left that off his list. Thanks KAG.
Didn’t know he owned any golf courses
