The MLK that’s never quoted.

and it’s no accident that this segment is conveniently left out of our education

The white-washing of MLK jr. and the civil rights movement on a whole to make history look kindly upon white folk and convince POC of the disempowering lie that is “Be polite, nice, & don’t challenge us & you’ll get your rights” is one that disgusts me to no end.

We all live busy lives, but let us not forget nor ignore the fact that some people are viewed as worth more than others. This is an injustice in itself but it presents many more hidden injustices within our daily lives which must be pinpointed and corrected. Gender, race, sexual orientation, ethnicity, ability, intelligence, religion, place of birth, education, etc. should not be determinants of our value as human beings. In order to prevent further oppression and move beyond that which already exists, we must be aware of the problems we face.
