Be A King
@BerniceKing
"With my mother. Daddy's funeral.
He wasn't assassinated because he wanted his children to be judged "by the content of their character."
But for dismantling racism, poverty & militarism.
He wanted corrective measures to eradicate racism, not the delusion that it doesn't exist."

“The great enemy of justice are those moderates who feign outrage at societal injustice, but whose outrage conveniently disappears when real change threatens their status. These moderates are more comfortable leaving unchallenged the assumed moral authority of certain institutions, traditions and practices that are the purveyors of injustice rather than confronting their own role in maintaining these institutions. The hard truth is that the comfort of the status quo is always preferable to pursuing the demands of justice.”
—MLKjr
Despite what moderates (centrists, neoliberals, etc.)—who are more devoted to order than justice—might be saying, there should be no doubt that Martin Luther King, Jr. would be on the side of the student protesters who are standing up for Palestine 🇵🇸

“We need leaders not in love with money but in love with justice. Not in love with publicity but in love with humanity.” Martin Luther King.

When people say they want “peaceful” protests they’re really just saying “be quiet”.
This kind of thinking reminds me of the Dr. King quote: “True peace is not merely the absence of tension; it is the presence of justice.”

Jewish people have always supported progress, humanity, equality.
No false narratives and distorting truth and history can change that... unless we stay silent and let the lies take over.
