I was listening to WLS around noon, one of the hosts said if MLK,Jr. was alive today he’d “bitchslap” Al Sharpton.
“...one of the hosts said if MLK,Jr. was alive today he’d “bitchslap” Al Sharpton.”
That’s funny and yet it’s sad because it’s TRUE.
What King and other strove for and fought against has been hijacked and really ridiculed by the likes of Sharpton, who’s nothing but a publicity seeking race hustler.
What has that pathetic character ever done FOR blacks? He’s made himself rich and famous. In the meanwhile in black neighborhoods across the US, kids continue to drop out of school, babies have babies and then more babies, illiteracy is rampant, drug usage and crime is rampant. It’s not safe for a middle class black woman or man to walk the streets alone. And Sharpton’s mouth and rallies have not lifted ONE of them up.
Al, if you really want to do something productive, get off tv, get off the mic, go into the ‘hood and do something for the folks living there. Then come back and talk to us.
