Just received in an email and curious about anyone's thoughts. Don't know how much of it is true.
ML King even his name is FAKE
This is a disgusting Federal Holiday that educated citizens are
forced to celebrate !
It seems our country is sick
Four things I'll bet you didn't know about Martin Luther King:
1. His name wasn't Martin Luther. It was Michael. It was decided
Martin
Luther had a more prominent ring to it, so he went by that. He never
legally changed his name. To this day, he lived and died as Michael King.
2. While working on his dissertation for his doctoral degree at Boston
University, he heavily plagiarized from another author who had done
research on a subject similar to King's. An academic committee later
found that
over half of King? s work was plagiarized, yet would not revoke his
doctorate
degree. King was dead by this time, and the committee ruled that
revoking
the title would serve no purpose. It was also discovered that King's
famous I HAVE A DREAM speech was also not his own. He stole it from
a sermon by
Archibald Carey, a popular black preacher in the 1950's.
3. King was under FBI surveillance for several years (until he died) due
to his ties with communist organizations throughout the country. King
accepted money from the organizations to fund his movements. In
return, King had to
appoint communist leaders to run certain districts of his SCLC (Southern
Christian Leadership Conference), who then could project their
communist
ideas to larger audiences. A federal judge in the 60's ruled that
the FBI
files on King links to communism to remain top-secret until 2027.
Senator
Jesse Helms appealed to the Supreme Court in 1983 to release the
files, so
the bill in the Senate to create the Martin Luther King Federal Holiday
could be abolished. He was denied.
4. One of King's closest friends, Rev. Ralph Abernathy, wrote a book in
1989 in which he talked about King's obsession with white
prostitutes. King
would often use church donations to have drunken sex parties, where
he would
hire two to three white prostitutes, occasionally beating them
brutally. The
FBI agents who monitored King have also reported this. King was
married with
four children
Martin Luther King Day is a day on which this country comes to a
screeching halt so we can have parades and memorials to honor this
man, a man that
most of the world views as a saint for his! role in the civil rights
movement:
- No other public holiday in the United States honors a single
individual;
Of all the great leaders in our Nation's history-none of them have their
own holiday;
- All of our great war heroes share Memorial Day;
- All of our great presidents share President's Day.
Yet King -- a man who was a phony, a cheater, a traitor, and a sexual
degenerate gets a day of his ! own.
I have a big problem with that. I'm not trying to take anything
away from
African Americans, but I am simply trying to point out that:
- The vast majority of people are sorely mistaken about Michael
King; and
- Reverse discrimination is blatantly obvious everywhere you look
today.
Been watching the news lately? President Bush just got himself in some
hot water when he spoke out against the University of Michigan for
giving
black applicants pre cedence over more qualified white applicants.
Now Jesse
Jackson, the NAACP, and other black leaders are trashing him, without a
doubt planning how they can use this against his reelection campaign.
Think about that - Bush just made a stand for equal human rights,
but lo and
behold -- in this case they just didn't want to be treated as equals.
Make up your own minds, but I feel like I belong to one of the more
abused
ethnic groups in this country today.
Can I do anything about it? Absolutely not. If I dare speak out
I'll get
labeled a racist, harassed by the media, subsequently lose my job, and
never be able to show my face in public again.
But what I can do is send this e-mail to as many people I know in hopes
that when you're watching the evening news on Martin Luther King
Day, and you
observe our politicians falling all over themselves to be filmed in a
black church, you'll keep these above facts in m ind.
