Martin Luther King, Jr. was a radical non-violent leftist. There is little doubt but that he would have supported today’s affirmative action programs.
I don’t know that MLK would have supported those measures anymore than Justice Clarence Thomas supports them.
(which is not at all)
Or Thomas Sowell.
I think the point that MLK (personally) would have been above the smarmy “identity politics” of today is well taken.
