The bleaching of Martin Luther King Jr.

[Tracy Riddle]

As one black leader, Cornel West, whose brain has not yet turned to mush put it, "If Martin were to show up at this march (the 50th Anniversary of the March on Washington) and they asked him to give a speech, what he would say would be so subversive that those on the Obama plantation would be revealed for who they are, which is obsessed with career, obsessed with access, obsessed with status as opposed to being obsessed with the suffering of poor Black brothers and sisters."
