Everyone should read these and reflect on them. Sadly much of his message has been bastardized by the liberal left and ignored by the conservative right.A great majority of the so-called educated people do not think logically and scientifically. Even the press, the classroom, the platform, and the pulpit in many instances do not give us objective and unbiased truths.
If we are not careful, our colleges will produce a group of close-minded, unscientific, illogical propagandists, consumed with immoral acts. Be careful, "brethren!"
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.
I have a dream that my four children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character.
Many poor whites were the derivative victims of slavery. As long as labor was cheapened by the involuntary servitude of the black man, the freedom of white labor, especially in the South, was little more than a myth. It was free only to bargain from the depressed base imposed by slavery upon the whole labor market. Nor did this derivative bondage end when formal slavery gave way to the de-facto slavery of discrimination. To this day the white poor also suffer deprivation and the humiliations of poverty
In the treatment of poverty nationally, one fact stands out: there are twice as many white poor as Negro poor in the United States. Therefore I will not dwell on the experiences of poverty that derive from racial discrimination, but will discuss the poverty that affects white and Negro alike.

MLK quotes that stand the test of time...
I was flying on Monday and couldn't post to honor MLK. Today I am in the home office and have the time. Here are a few of his quotes that everyone should re-read and take to heart.

It wasn't subconscious. I picked things that applied to both side of political spectrum. Sadly all that most want to do is attack the messenger.

Re: MLK quotes that stand the test of time...
To holic's point, I continue to be amazed that the poor population in the US continues to vote for Team D. Team D clearly wants to bring in more workers on the lowest end of the spectrum. These foreign (many illegal) will work for rock bottom wages, making the situation even harder for the poor US citizens.
Guess they are blinded by $15 minimum wage and UBI. But $15 minimum wage means nothing when those jobs are going to foreign workers.

Since Trump was tough on immigration and created a strong enforcement arm of ICE to enforce immigration laws in workplaces this won't be an issue.Left Seater wrote: ↑Thu Jan 21, 2021 3:42 pmDid you even read my post.

Re: MLK quotes that stand the test of time...
For someone who criticizes others of using strawman arguments your post shows your hypocrisy.
My point was that Trump didn't do anything to increase workplace enforcement. Why? Because the GOP is too addicted to free/low cost labor.
Care to illuminate for everyone how Biden's EO reduces workplace enforcement, Mr. Strawman?

Re: MLK quotes that stand the test of time...
Clearly you don't understand the Strawman. Not surprised.
Trump wanted to reduce illegal immigration. Period. Full stop.
Biden signed an EO limiting ICE.
And speaking of hypocrite, let's review some of your boy Joey's previous statements:
No if Biden is actually going to hold employers accountable for their hiring, then I will give him some props. We shall see.

And speaking of hypocrite, let's review some of your boy Joey's previous statements:
CNN wrote:Speaking to a South Carolina rotary club in November 2006, Biden touted his support for the Secure Fence Act – a bill that authorized 700 miles of double-layered fence on the border through more than a billion dollars in appropriations. The bill was also supported by then-Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton. CNN’s KFile reviewed the video, which had been posted on YouTube at the time.
During the 2008 presidential election, Biden also opposed granting driver’s licenses to undocumented immigrants – an issue that dogged Clinton in the 2008 and 2016 Democratic presidential primary. His immigration plan also called for increasing funding for border patrol.
Speaking at a September 2007 debate at Dartmouth College in New Hampshire, Biden said he would not allow so-called sanctuary cities to ignore federal law.
“Yes or no, would you allow those cities to ignore the federal law?” Biden was asked. “No,” he responded.
No if Biden is actually going to hold employers accountable for their hiring, then I will give him some props. We shall see.
