The Powers that were, knew the Truth , too. That was back when The Powerful not only didn't say the Quiet part Out Loud, They didn't let anyone say it either. They will always be back. Look how they are sweating the minor changes to American Aristocracy.
My youngest daughter was married at the Riverside church in 2017, she knew King spoke there and wanted to be married at that beautiful place of worship.
What a brilliant speech laying out America's migration from its revolution to the squelching of other's. We must speak, we must change our militaristic , hegemonic and imperialistic ways. We must find a way to stand for justice, equality and freedom. If only we could find a political leader with a fraction of this wisdom and truth and the rhetorical skills to present same.
41:05 if you know you know, but honestly this segment is very powerful and I think beautifully speaks for how Vietnam era America felt about war at the time.
Doctor king was deep and truthful about it ,ship us too combat zones and come home in body bags or messed up for the rest of your life from a combat veteran for 2 gulf wars ,rest n power my veterans and Doctor king,Malcolm X And others.
Baba Martin Luther King Junior spoke excellently condemning the war on Vietnam even if it cost him, his life. Baba Martin was totally justified as totally unapologetic to condemn America for her arrogance by commiting an unjustly act against families in Vietnam such as murder rape and other cruelties. Baba Martin even knew that Baba Malcolm X was right about the nasty things that America is unsurprisingly known for.
He was a global intellectual. He will always be my hero. This is a lane that he was not supposed to be in? The power structure expected him to stay in his black preacher and civil rights lanes. Kwame Ture (Stokely Carmichael) stated that he did not know that Dr. King was going to speak out this strong regarding Vietnam. Dr. King listened to the young people expressing their concerns about America's hypocrisy when it came to Vietnam and black people's struggles in this country. When he stated that this government was the “greatest purveyor of violence in the world,” it made him public enemy #1 to the power structure in Washington. President LBJ reportedly remarked “What is that goddamned n word preacher doing to me?" Lastly, substitute Vietnam in this speech, for Iraq and Afghanistan and one will see how his critique was spot on!
And we can keep right on substituting.... Let's start with Libya.... And now these same clowns want to start a war in the Ukraine....With Russia!!!! It's not going to go well.... At all !!!
DOCTOR MARTIN L.KING. PEOPLE ARE GONE CRAZY IN THE PAST 50 YEARS OR SO THEY ARE TRYING TO KILL THE DREAM, WE REFUSE TO LET THAT HAPPEN IF WE DO THAT MEANS ALL YOUR WORK WAS FOR NOTHING! WE WILL STAY STRONG EVEN IN DEATH YOUR MEMORIES SILL LIVE ON!
I hope America and Israel do not think it will escape retribution from our father. I wish I could ask for mercy, but I feel I do not have the courage to do so.
We are all sick, all of us, Muslim, Hindu, European, Black Americans - Palestinians & Isreal - please do not insult the CRM (civil rights movement) is not the same as our civil rights movement - Our movement was predominantly NON VIOLENT. And unlike the Palestinians, we were ok to live with our oppressors, and we took the scraps and still worked at it equality. THE PALESTINIANS do not want concessions and JEWS must get out, NO- NOT THE SAME!!!
God Almighty! Have Mercy and Grace upon those that adhere not to the doctrine of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. . From God to you! If not a commitment to the Faith of his faith. I pray that the whole you seek within the ranks . Makes you be One with God. Bless those that are in that line that I can't turn back to . One Faith!!! One Baptism!!! God Almighty! Forgive me for any letter or word that I have said to decrease this Messengers messages!!!! So Be It!!!🙏😁😃😀
Curious how the pursuit of Truth from non-violent remarkable individuals such as King, Gandhi, Lincoln etc, inevitably ends in their sudden, violent demise and how we, today, have nothing to offer by way of comparison, just their moving testimonies and the Word of God. This world Truly is Satan the devil's.......for now. Even so, come Lord Jesus, on earth as it is in heaven, come. Amen.
From the wilderness the prophet cried out; outside the city gates he shouted and he warned. But the only thing we learned from VN, it seems, is to keep war off TV. "Attention all concerned outlets, the press pool gathers to your right. Don't forget your information packets. This way please..."
Yes. That's what many of his close allies have said. Rabbi Abraham Heschel was a close ally who was there at the speech and he concluded after hearing it that MLK had just signed his death warrant. The King family has said for decades the FBI was responsible (Ray was a patsy and didn't shoot him).
And I would nominate as its peer his Letter from a Birmingham Jail, cajoling white preachers, ministers, and priests to open their minds, hearts, and coffer to the Negro, as African Americans called themselves then.
It's perfectly clear to me why the powers that be would want King dead. He knew the truth, and he spoke it.
The Powers that were, knew the Truth , too. That was back when The Powerful not only didn't say the Quiet part Out Loud, They didn't let anyone say it either. They will always be back. Look how they are sweating the minor changes to American Aristocracy.
Amen
Did you guys catch the date of this? April 4, 1967. He was taken out on April 4, 1968. That wasn't an accident.
My youngest daughter was married at the Riverside church in 2017, she knew King spoke there and wanted to be married at that beautiful place of worship.
Brilliant!!!
I listen to this every year on his birthday. Always so moving, a timeless message so very true today
me too
Dr Martin Luther King is one of the greatest men the USA ever produced. He is one of my heroes---I love listening to his speeches.
I agree so completely. The Catholic Church has put him on the path to declared Sainthood. I will never for-sake this motion.
In Vietnam he is considered a Bodhisattva ( an enlightened being) .
This speech is more relevant today than when it was delivered.
Xin cảm ơn những người Mỹ yêu tự do. Cảm ơn các bạn. Thế hệ giới trẻ chúng tôi không quên ơn các vị vì độc lập tự do cho VN
Xin cam lol
You have already. ASIANS Haye Black people.
I think this speech would classify as Dr. King's greatest speech. Not I have a dream...the Vietnam speech is the greatest.
Just what I was looking for. His greatest! Layed out why his dream would only be just a dream.
Words that speak to the now. Amazing soul! My respect 🙌
Thank God for the great Brothers that brought the truth forward about America and the government
What a brilliant speech laying out America's migration from its revolution to the squelching of other's. We must speak, we must change our militaristic , hegemonic and imperialistic ways.

Dear America, this 2024 election is not about what some media portrays, but just follow your heart, because your heart means a lot to the World.
Doctor king was deep and truthful about it ,ship us too combat zones and come home in body bags or messed up for the rest of your life from a combat veteran for 2 gulf wars ,rest n power my veterans and Doctor king,Malcolm X And others.
He was more than a hero
He was an eloquent orator that was taken away- Isaiah chapter 3- last words.
Love will have the last word! King
I Can Never raised m'y voice against the voilence of the opprased unless i first speak to thé greatest purveyor of voilence. I like this line
Malcolm x said the same thing DR King is saying it's time for everybody to wake up out of this sleep and see this country for what it stands for
They were both killed for the same reason. They knew the truth, and they told it to the people.
His conversation with Elijah Muhammad changed things.
Right on ,power 2 the people

Hear this out
Speak,Sir!!!!! PREACH IT!!!!!!
And France is still at it today, in Africa. How little things have changed all over the 🗺...

Very Good news 😊

Have we seen a significant and profound change for the better since 1967? I'd say no.
God Almighty! Have Mercy and Grace upon those that adhere not to the doctrine of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. . From God to you! If not a commitment to the Faith of his faith.

My phone led me to this message... And I hope I can listen.
Isaiah chapter 3 and verse 3 last phrase- the eloquent orator that was taken away
Time Magazine defamed him for this as well as the New York times. Angent Orange still causes infant deformity..
Amen, Brother.

9:11 The Greatest Purveyor of Violence in the world today.
Elementary reasoning they had to question Dr.King About the war
From the wilderness the prophet cried out; outside the city gates he shouted and he warned.
But the only thing we learned from VN, it seems, is to keep war off TV.
"Attention all concerned outlets, the press pool gathers to your right. Don't forget your information packets. This way please..."
Thou hast said it. Man of great wisdom and vision of God. Sealed.
did this speech cost him his life. this what some of us think.
Yes. That's what many of his close allies have said. Rabbi Abraham Heschel was a close ally who was there at the speech and he concluded after hearing it that MLK had just signed his death warrant. The King family has said for decades the FBI was responsible (Ray was a patsy and didn't shoot him).
