Unmoderated Tag: Politics Rating: Ok Hits: 101 Comments: 0 What You May Not Know about MLK What You May Not Know about MLK http://warongreed.org/dreams.php Today we honor Dr. King's birthday. We all know him because of his historic impact on civil rights, but many don't realize that later in life he fought just as passionately for the rights of workers and against the entrenched institutions of injustice. "Equality means dignity. And dignity demands a job and a paycheck that lasts through the week." The War on Greed is exactly this kind of fight. The livelihoods of families have been directly attacked by the actions of buyout billionaires like Henry Kravis putting Wall Street's special interests ahead of his 800,000 employees... and pocketing $51,000 an hour in the process. The first step must be taxing these buyout billionaires at a fair tax rate. It will not solve all the problems, but it is a strong and forceful beginning. With the presidential campaigns underway, it is the perfect time to force this issue into the campaigns the way we did with Wal-Mart and Iraq for Sale. As our friend Rev. Yearwood, leader of the Hip Hop Caucus, has said: "We are facing a lunch counter moment for the 21st century." Please join us at our virtual lunch counter by signing the petition to presidential candidates demanding they pledge to close the loopholes and tax the tax dodgers. Buyout billionaires are a menace to our economy. People are hurting, badly, and we must take beginning steps to bring the issue of corporate greed and economic equality to the nation's attention.

Headline Tag: Politics Rating: Amazing Hits: 683 Comments: 1 Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory: MLK Forever Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory: MLK Forever The infamous 1993 documentary on the Assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King whom the FBI once called "The Most Dangerous Man in the United States." Ties direct evidence, interviews, and historical footage showing that once MLK began to unite all races and call for the US to leave Vietnam, he was quickly assassinated by a conspiracy that the US government has since admitted existed. Also includes direct evidence of the United States Government’s use of COINTELPRO working with an eager corporate media to manipulate public opinion. Warning: Parts of the historic film footage and images are quite violent and may be disturbing to some viewers. User: buckinghamgreen Dec 7, 2008 4:12 PM

Headline Tag: Television Rating: Amazing Hits: 287 Comments: 0 Death In Memphis: The Mysterious Assassin Death In Memphis: The Mysterious Assassin In April 1968, Rev. Martin Luther King was at the height of his popularity. He had mobilized the black masses of America against apartheid and won Civil Rights concessions which made Blacks and Whites equal in the eyes of the Law. But J. Edgar Hoover, the head of the FBI, had an obsessional hatred of King and was determined to silence him. On the afternoon of April 4th, 1968, at his Memphis hotel, King was assassinated with a perfect shot. The search immediately centred on James Earl Ray, an escaped prisoner. But there are many who insist that Ray was just the fall-guy and believe that the FBI set him up. Despite disturbing evidence, the case has never been opened for re-investigation.

Permanent Tag: Politics Rating: Amazing Hits: 686 Comments: 0 Malcolm X on Dr. Martin Luther King Malcolm X on Dr. Martin Luther King The white man pays Reverend Martin Luther King, subsidizes Reverend Martin Luther King, so that Reverend Martin Luther King can continue to teach the Negroes to be defenseless. That's what you mean by non-violent: be defenseless. Be defenseless in the face of one of the most cruel beasts that has ever taken a people into captivity. That's this American white man. And they have proved it throughout the country by the police dogs and the police clubs. A hundred years ago they used to put on a white sheet and use a bloodhound against Negroes. Today they've taken off the white sheet and put on police uniforms, they've traded in the bloodhounds for police dogs, and they're still doing the same thing. And just as Uncle Tom, back during slavery, used to keep the Negroes from resisting the bloodhound, or resisting the Ku Klux Klan, by teaching them to love their enemy, or pray for those who use them spitefully, today Martin Luther King is just a 20th century or modern Uncle Tom, or a religious Uncle Tom, who is doing the same thing today, to keep Negroes defenseless in the face of an attack, that Uncle Tom did on the plantation to keep those Negroes defenseless in the face of the attacks of the Klan in that day.
