Alex Haley’s 1965 Interview with Martin Luther King Jr. In Playboy

    Comments

    The FBI, the agency that tried to destroy King, sent out a tribute to King via Twitter today.

    Edit to add:

    The problem with the FBI praise is that they sent a letter to King suggesting that he commit suicide

    They also launched COINTELPRO

    The argument against a big shift in the agency's mindset is that they recently considered Black Identity Extremists more dangerous than white supremacists. After not being able to find any Black Identity Ectremits, they say that the program no longer exists

    You've captured her special motormouth capabilities! Really, there's this thing she does, a slow buildup to excessive hyperbole by motormouthing, it's like someone flips an autopilot switch to turn it on.
