How odd, my black office manager agrees with CC and not Ultra. Then again she's successful, owns her own home and is a not a liberal.:idea:
Maybe you should set her up with CC

Believe what you would like CC. Christian White Supremacist garbage. Keep searching, I'm sure you can find more. I have a hunch that you hate Jews too, Right?
CC = Commiephobic Crap
Hey I'm as Commiephobic as anyone!!! But I don't believe the end of de jure segregation caused the current problems in the Black community. I do however feel that putting all their political eggs into the left's basket, slavishly joining up with the very party that worked so hard to keep them down for so long, and allowing that party to trap so many of them in failing social welfare programs has contributed to the problems in the black community. But there are other factors (pertaining to southern culture and black folks from the south embracing some of it's more dysfunctional aspects). Look to Thomas Sowell's great books for a more complete explanation, I don't have time for 300 well referanced pages here.

So have you changed your position and now agree with CC that Dr. Martin Luther King was a communist?
BTW, much of what is contained in that link I don't agree with.

No change at all. I still think that communisim and socialism are the most authoritarian socio-political ideologies ever devised.
I do not think that MLK was a communist.
I am sure the left tried to use him and the civil rights movement in general. However, I feel by ending the pure evil of Jim Crow, that MLK and the rest of the civil rights movement did far far more good than harm and the faild social programs and the social ills that that CC (or his sources) blame MLK and the Civil rights movement for, are more a product of the political left's and the Democratic Party's (not necessarily the same thing back then, like they are today) efforts to control black americians, than they are a product of the civil rights movements efforts. I believe MLK was a very good man with very good goals. The fact that some of his "supporters" were as rotten as his opponents does not change that fact for me.
