Necessary Blackness Ep: 47 King Was AmeriKKKa’s Nightmare

In this episode of Necessary Blackness Podcast, Rahiem Shabazz analyzes Dr. Martin Luther King Jr’s life and how mainstream media tries to change the narrative of his message. The message of MLK is being changed to revise his history for the state sanction holiday we celebrate every year. Initially, the church was opposed to King’s message because they saw it as a “social issue” and not a spiritual one. These same churches open up their doors to civil right leaders and politicians every year to reclaim the dream when Martin was a nightmare to AmeriKKKa’s hypocrisy.  King was an individual who lifted the think veils of deceit and uncovered AmeriKKKa’s treachery. He would’ve spoken out against Trump and his entire administration.
