Perhaps more statutes of Clarence Thomas as a role model rather than naming streets after MLK?

Like his personal behavior or not, MLK preached non violence and suggested to blacks that they consider their content of character. He was more the solution than the problem, so he had to be killed.

Let's take a critical look. His personality-behavior was/is extremely relevant, he was a highly compromised individual, a hypocrite for all to see, and he knew it. His message was more designed as lip service for the white community than for blacks.

I don't have a case against MLK, he was someone else's work product. My refence was only to compare him with C. Thomas.

If you were charged with inspiring and uplifting the black community today, who would you hire of the two as a speaker?
