FBI wire taps on MLK show he wasn't the saint people think he was. I remember hearing MLK was with a hooker the day he was shot.

C&P
Secret FBI tapes that accuse Martin Luther King Jr of having extramarital affairs with '40 to 45 women' and even claim he 'looked on and laughed' as a pastor friend raped a parishioner exist, an author has claimed.

The civil rights hero was also heard allegedly joking he was the founder of the 'International Association for the Advancement of P***y-Eaters' on an agency recording that was obtained by bugging his room, according to the sensational claims made by biographer David Garrow - a Pulitzer prize-winning author and biographer of MLK.

Writing in British magazine Standpoint, Garrow says that the shocking files could lead to a 'painful historical reckoning' for the man who is celebrated across the world for his campaign against racial injustice.

Along with many US civil rights figures, King was subject to an FBI campaign of surveillance ordered by Director J Edgar Hoover in an effort to undermine his power amid fears he could have links to the Communist Party.

But David Garrow, a biographer of King who won a Pulitzer Prize for his 1987 book Bearing the Cross about the Baptist minister, has unearthed the FBI summaries of the various incidents.

In an article to be published in Standpoint, Garrow tells how the FBI planted transmitters in two lamps in hotel rooms booked by King in January 1964, according to The Sunday Times.

I would bet the tapes were used to get MLK on board with the Kennedy's

    Thanks for the post. Let's just hope and pray it becomes a hot topic in every household in America and abroad. Which brings to mind the question of which demon is responsible for spawning Maxipad Waters, the Black Caucus, and their Coven?

    He and sleepy Joe bitme have a lot in common, both are proven plagiarizers :o

    C&P
    A committee of scholars appointed by Boston University concluded today that the Rev. Martin Luther King Jr. plagiarized passages in his dissertation for a doctoral degree at the university 36 years ago.

    "There is no question," the committee said in a report to the university's provost, "but that Dr. King plagiarized in the dissertation by appropriating material from sources not explicitly credited in notes, or mistakenly credited, or credited generally and at some distance in the text from a close paraphrase or verbatim quotation."

    Despite its finding, the committee said that "no thought should be given to the revocation of Dr. King's doctoral degree," an action that the panel said would serve no purpose.
    If he was a white conservative he would have been stripped of everything.


    BTW he never legally changed his name, his real name is Michael King

    No, a man's faults should not outweigh the good he's done in the world

    At least that's what the Civil Rights Advocates will say...

    And I would tend to agree with that. I'm a firm believer that nobody is perfect

    What was the term the fake priest used in "Tales Of The Gold Monkey"? MLK was "Giving blessings".

    Exactly!

    WHITE people actions and activities from decades ago are being judged by today?s SJW standards. Buildings renamed. Statues toppled. Plaques removed.

    How about we judge MLK ?not by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character.? There?d be some serious renaming, toppling and removing...

    What the devil happened to ?equality??
