More From Danny Glover

The white man supports 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 nonviolent - be defenseless in the face of one of the most cruel beasts that has ever taken 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.

I'm not martin luther king. i can't be martin luther king. the only thing i can do is present what i feel the essence of martin luther king is.

Neither my great-grandfather an naacp founder, my grandfather dr. martin luther king, sr. an naacp leader, my father rev. a. d. williams king, nor my uncle dr. martin luther king, jr. embraced the homosexual agenda that the current naacp is attempting to label as a civil rights agenda.

The white man pays reverend martin luther king so that martin luther king can keep the negro defenseless.

I still hear people say that i should not be talking about the rights of lesbian and gay people and i should stick to the issue of racial justice. but i hasten to remind them that martin luther king jr. said, 'injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere.' i appeal to everyone who believes in martin luther king jr.'s dream to make room at the table of brother- and sisterhood for lesbian and gay people.

The goal of martin luther king is to get the negroes to forgive the people the people who have brutalized them for four hundred years, by lulling them to sleep and making them forget what those whites have done to them, but the masses of black people today don't go for what martin luther king is putting down.

The king died and then the queen died is a story. the king died, and then queen died of grief is a plot.

Let it never be said by future generations that indifference, cynicism or selfishness made us fail to live up to the ideals of humanism which the nobel peace prize encapsulates. let the strivings of us all, prove martin luther king jr. to have been correct, when he said that humanity can no longer be tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war.

In the great undertakings, there is glory, even in failure.

This was a very progressive group of clergy who foresaw the race riots that were going to take place when dr. king started helping the local civil rights community push for open housing. they were sort of hoping against hope that we could educate kids in a way that could counter some of the racist messages they were imbibing at home. i don't know whether we did any good, but it changed my life in every single way.
