M.L.K’s REAL Legacy

Wondering around the blogsphere last night I stopped by one of my favorite writers.

Kevin Jackson says what so many of us on the right side of the aisle understand is the real Martin Luther King. His legacy has been hijacked by the likes of Sharpton and Jackson and those worse than them. Take a look:

Kings Real Legacy By Kevin Jackson

As the birthday of Martin Luther King, Jr approaches, I began thinking of what he might think about the time we live in.  I believe Dr. King would be disgusted at how his legacy is being used as a double standard, a sort of have your cake and eat it too by Liberal blacks, and how Liberal whites are prostituting his dream.

When MLK fought for civil rights back in the ’60s, there weren’t a lot of black mega-millionaires, or black industry moguls like Oprah Winfrey, Jay Z and so on. If BET existed at all, it would have only been because black people would not have been able to appear on “regular” TV.

Two score and three years later, the Liberal black man in America is still a prisoner. Liberal blacks are no longer “sadly crippled by the manacles of segregation and the chains of discrimination,” as King wrote,  but have become prisoners of their own minds.

America has made good on that bounced check due to “insufficient funds,” and black people were made whole and then some. The black man is no longer an exile in his own land, as King suggested in the ‘60s. When King spoke of the shameful condition of the black man, it was real and at the hands of white Democrats. Today however, if there is a shameful condition of the black man, it is a condition of the black man’s own creation.

There can be no argument that black people have advanced to the highest possible levels in America, and black Liberals know in their hearts that the sky is the limit as far as the potential for black achievement. No longer do black Liberals need to feel disingenuous when encouraging their children that they could one day be president of the United States. Despite all the overwhelming examples of achievement by blacks however, Liberal black people still complain more than any other culture about America; calling America racist, and saying that the black man is being kept down. They are right. But it is Liberal blacks keeping Liberal blacks down.
