Fewer and fewer always left while the oppressors are in charge. Capital believes foolishly its own importance. At least I humbly hope, as just one of our polity.
What did non violent action get martin king? The same as violent action;An early, violent Death... I have never seen too many bullies/oppressors stopped with words and protests.
What a brilliant insightful and in touch man. I never saw him when he was alive but I was alive when he was. If there is ever a concrete definition of what constitutes a man or a woman it is Dr. King. Never not finding what is universal about a particular subject.
Vital, and pristine. It is clear here why our military industrial complex leaders felt they needed to take him away from awakening citizens further. Jack, Robert, Thomas Merton, so so many others that year, the height of our atrocity in Vietnam. In 1986 and '87 went to the King Center in Atlanta. I had never heard this speech before. Heard of it, but get to hear it.... kept from us, and maligned in our press at the time. I was shocked and moved beyond beyond! Bought a cassette then (that's what we had in those days), went up to Riverside Church, sat in the pew, put on headphones, and pressed Play. Highly recommend this. As numerous have stated, you cannot listen to these words enough.... and yes, they are very current for our crime of militarism today, the triplets. Yesterday (April 4th) also marked the day the Kings Bay Plowshares 7 purposely carried through their action to help awaken U.S. citizens to the severe breaking of international law, all human law, of our nuclear weapon base in Georgia. They paid the price of a rigged federal court trial, and prison. Yesterday, most of them gathered at Riverside Church to commemorate this anniversary. Thank you Amy and Democracy Now for coverage of all three of these anniversaries of April 4th. Onward together.
In a 2016 article for Sojourners magazine, Rabbi Arthur Waskow recalled that King’s “friend and co-worker Rabbi Abraham Joshua Heschel was heard to mutter that by giving this profoundly radical speech [King] had signed his death warrant - and indeed, exactly one year later, he was murdered.”
Was always more of a Malcolm X Supporter but the Media and Education System cut out MLK Speeches in his later years because he called out Capitalism and the Military Industrial Complex.
Every time I hear this incredible speaker, this inspirational soul I’m always reminded just how much WE ALL LOST in the way rod violence he so abhorred! And then you see leaders in this country since and how they now have too many of them almost all republicans have caved under the foot of money and power and will continue to do so unless we are not just willing to stand up to all their corruption but the cooperate corruption. See that we are all in this together no matter what walk of life! Let’s not let them dictate how we work and live together based on how we want not what they tell us!
Today Americans and People in other Countries face the same fate. Greed, prejudice, and illiteracy in People who ask to lead. What sense does it make for Public Officials in every City and State to combine People who are fighting for their overdue justice to People who threaten these Public Officials without cause. The two are totally different things. The big PROBLEM that we have in the World is People who ask to serve the People but are serving themselves to become rich, famous, and wealthy. I. E. We hear Black People saying, "We have a Black Vice President now." What good is a Black Vice President if the Government continues to kill a lot of Black People who are not doing anything wrong for misfits of society. The People voting lives has not change much except many of the voters are now homeless, disease infested, and more poor. This election has NEVER helped decent People. The Military does not even respect certain Races. That is pure illiteracy. We do not have to like these People just as much as they claim that they do not like many of us. With that being a fact. The next step is to move this Country forward. The other Countries should do the same. The days of trying to get People not to fight back are over!
4:50 - I have met with God at the mountain top of my consciousness. I have returned with the very same commandments and declarations as millions who traveled before me. Dr. Martin Luther King spoke an honest and bold truth that has not changed in thousands of years, if not since the beginning of time itself. Do not look to me for revelation. Look to God for that as you worship. Look past me, and unto the Lord. One glance at God's greatness will compel you further than 100 years of my speeches and writings. Be forewarned, God is more convincing, more compelling, more compassionate than I can ever be. God will change your mind and set you upon a path to repentance and revelation. Look upon God and your life will truly change. Your heart will change. Your soul will be redeemed.
Eloquent but lacks wisdom. Violent injustice isn't removed by love. Vietnamese didn't win the war by love. Iranians didn't get control of their government by love. Even India didn't get it's freedom and independence purely by love. Pacifism is warranted when you have the upper hand. Pacifism when you are subjected to unjust violence is pure idiocy if there isn't a long term plan to react in the like.
Thank you uploaded this new unknown vid of Martin Luther King Jr.
Yes.
he opposed capitalism too
I could hear this speech a dozen times and still tear up
A true prophet.
Messenger

"A Time to Break Silence" if you want to listen to the whole speech. It's amazing.
When justice will roll down like waters, and righteousness like a mighty stream ~MLK

Amen Martin Amen.
I am really sad about the vote suppressing in Georgia. It shows clearly the racism of people. Where is Christ in their lives?
Thank you Doctor King, may we fulfill your dream of peace, brotherhood, economic justice and love for every person

They love quoting Dr. MARTIN LUTHER King but didn't and/or wouldn't have respected him if he were alive today

Bless his heart!! We have someone today who comes close to Dr. King, Dr. William Barber !! Check him out “ the tight rope” podcast.

Wonder what MLK would have thought of the modern racial identity politics.
Eloquent but lacks wisdom. Violent injustice isn't removed by love.
Vietnamese didn't win the war by love.
Iranians didn't get control of their government by love.
Even India didn't get it's freedom and independence purely by love.

Pacifism when you are subjected to unjust violence is pure idiocy if there isn't a long term plan to react in the like.
You are mistaken it was love that lead all the wars, the love of country and its people, that is what the vietnamese had and the States didn't.
True
Wasn't he Freemason ?
And the yanks shot and killed this great man
