Why Jesus Called a Man a Fool - MLK, August 1967
A fine sermon from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (Oh Angry Independent, are you going to play all those MLK sermons?... I certainly am. Especially in light of Glenn Beck defecating on his memory). Glenn Beck is the antithesis of just about everything that Dr. King stood for.... labor rights, equal justice, concern for the poor and the vulnerable, unity, service, community organizing... etc.
They can rewrite American political history all they want... but attempting to distort the history and legacy of Black Americans? That can't happen.

Most people ignore the financial concerns explicit in the entire speech, choosing to focus only on ' I have a dream.'
