Yup. Here we are 2022 and still just as racially segregated as ever. He had a dream and this isn't it.

We must be doing something right at Morehouse to continue to attract ignorant comments from inconsequential haters.🙄

@@phillipcamp853 Morehouse is not a racially segregated institution. Students of various racial and ethnic groups attend Morehouse. Dr. King opposed racial segregation laws which by public policy restrict admission and attendance by race, color, creed, ethnicity, or national origin. Morehouse does not restrict admission or attendance on the basis of race, color, creed, ethnicity, or national origin.

MLK would never support “blm” or Kapernick. Y’all praise a man who fought against this kind of separation and hatred.

You are misrepresenting the political posture of Dr. King. He certainly would have embraced the Black Lives Matter movement and Mr. Kaepernick.

Mlk was in a black fraternity. Stop talking about stuff you know nothing about. Doctor king marched so that blacks could have equal rights. It wasn't for others. It was for his people. He was smart enough to go to a traditional college, and yet he chose an all black college . So stop trying to using MLK for your agenda. It is no separation to wanted better for your own people. All races pretend that wanting to be onclude somehow is separation when we as Americans never were together. Stop the bs !
