This needs to be said… white people always try to use MLK to shut down BLM or any thing retaining to the black Community . They only choose what part of Dr. Martin Luther King they want to use and they forget the rest of the history they came behind his struggle

Happy Martin Luther King Jr day. Today, more than any other day, we see sanitized quotes from Dr. King and it is incredibly important to remember his full message. Dr. King did not “die” for civil rights, he was assassinated, murdered. Remember that the work is not done, keep fighting. To all my African American followers and mutuals, I wish you power and healing; to my white followers and mutuals, I urge you to continue to unlearn your internalized racism and to be an active listener when people of color talk and to use whatever power you have to uplift their voices.
As always, Black Lives Matter
(Full disclaimer: I am a young white woman, if POC see anything wrong with what I said please let me know! I’m constantly working to be the best ally I can be and I would never say anything wrong on purpose! I want to learn so please correct me if I’m wrong!💗)

Y’all got ya generalized quote of MLK to post on this day then forget about the tragedies inflicted on African Americans any other day because you can’t be bothered to advocate for those in need but you want the world to know you’re not THAT type of racist or racist at all because you support Dr. Martin Luther King jr and think Obama was his legacy but still wishes the blacks would just get it together since it’s not so hard, I mean look at (insert cliché black person) they got their life together so the blacks must be making it up, but anyway, happy Martin Luther King jr day. Now let’s put a hold on implementing voter change until later this year because we need the blacks to come out in droves to vote us.
Anyway, “A change is gonna come”-Dr. Martin Luther King oops! That’s Sam Cooke. Whatever, doesn’t matter.

It's MLK/MLK Jr. Day and I wanted to do something special. I've included a few qoutes, as well as the iconic ✌ sign. I left the to do list empty, because I thinks it is up to the individual themselves to choose what they will do to commemorate the day.

White people misquoting MLK is hilarious, especially when they mentioned how he peacefully protested as a way to tell Black and brown people to stop fighting for their human rights. MLK peacefully protested and you killed him.
Now you all are fighting to revise history in way that makes your white kids feel comfortable.
STFU.
The fight continues. Whether it be peaceful or not.
