Martin Luther King was a pastor and political activist whose moral stance in the US in the 1960s posed a serious challenge to the institutionalised corruption at the heart of the US establishment. Now feted by the US government, although the US legal process conceded in 1999 that he was assassinated by the same government.

Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King Junior was a key figure in the 1960s in USA. A popular proponent of non-violence, he was spied upon by the deep state who saw danger in his popularity and refusal to be cowed by their threats. He was assassinated on 4 April 1968. At the time, the killing was blamed on a "lone nut", although a 1999 civil trial by jury concluded that he had been killed by a conspiracy including agents of the US government.
“A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right, a man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice, a man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true.”

- Full article: Martin Luther King/Assassination
The official narrative (according to a 1999 lawsuit in Memphis) is that Martin Luther King was assassinated by a conspiracy involving unnamed members of the US government. This was a remarkable lapse for a system usually able to control such official pronouncements. The commercially-controlled media showed a pronounced disinterest at the time, and have most ignored the jury's verdict ever since.
Opinions
“He who lives with untruth lives in spiritual slavery. Freedom is still the bonus we receive for knowing the truth.”

Quotes by MLK
Page | Quote |
---|---|
Fear | “We must build dikes of courage to hold back the flood of fear.” |
Love | “I refuse to accept the view that mankind is so tragically bound to the starless midnight of racism and war that the bright daybreak of peace and brotherhood can never become a reality… I believe that unarmed truth and unconditional love will have the final word.” |
MLK/Assassination | “If physical death is the price that I must pay to free my white brothers and sisters from a permanent death of the spirit, then nothing can be more redemptive.” |
Restorative justice | “Man must evolve for all human conflict a method which rejects revenge, aggression, and retaliation. The foundation of such a method is love.” |
