this forum is only slightly less politically correct than the left in that regard....and for the reasons you mentioned. it's about fear, not truth

You've got that right.

Black folks have put MLK up on a pedestal, and white folks aren't about to "scratch the paint" to see what lies beneath because they might be labeled "racists".

Black folks have put MLK up on a pedestal

in all fairness, whites helped too...bigtime...mainly because MLK was a token of white contrition and he was much less threatening than X or Huey...et al

I prefer black leaders like Booker and Sowell...but that's just one man's opinion
