The FBI and the government moved heaven and Earth to try to destroy MLK's movement.

MLK is not just the "I have a dream speech" he was SO much more than that.

& Conservatives continue to insist that he was a right winger!

I am very happy that the real MLK is being shown. He wasn't just a racial icon, but an ecological and socialist one as well.

Ironic, Martin Luther King is a hero now for his beliefs and actions when talked about now by the media, whereas Bernie Sanders having taken part and marched with him, fighting for decades for the same ideals, is treated like a crazy old man.

MLK may be the bravest American since Crispus Attucks. He knew he would be killed for what he said and made his words count.

MLK is a hero. His blend of Democratic Socialism, Justice, and Peace is truly inspiring. I wish people would open up his Politics more and more on his views of Public Policy. Not just his views of Equality for all

MLK is my hero

Once he criticized capitalism and the M.I.C. it was over for him. The "liberals" stopped funding him and threw him under the bus. "In the end, we will remember not the words of our enemies, but the silence of our friends" -M.L.K.

As a black person I hate when people say stuff like"but Martin Luther King..." in racial conversations like black people are allowed to diverge from his thought process I think it diminishes his legacy an and incapsulates black people in a bubble, but when you agree with his less popular opinions people would flat out deny that he said certain thing like in regards to riots and economic policies . BTW good vid Kyle.

Thank you for exposing the whitewashing of his legacy

MLK is a conservative- PragerU

MLK is equal to a chocolate Bernie Sanders

If MLK was alive how would Fox News (I use the term "news" loosely) treat him?

(slow clap) Well. Freakin'. SAID.

Nuh-uh, Dave Rubin told me he was a conservative because of one quote

This should be mandatory viewing today. Thanks for the video Kyle.

But Dave " the classical conservative " Rubin told me that he would be Republican who would appear on Fox News to tell people why he left the left

Mlk was not a democrat nor a republican he said in a 1958 interview that he doesn't believe in either.

We need a Malcolm X Day. We need a Fred Hampton Day.

Sounds to me like the real reason he was assassinated

Excellent piece.

And the country didn't come around to being anti-Vietnam war until the nightly news started showing the war live on TV every night. Back then, everyone watched TV and there were only 3 channels.

Correct u r...they watered down his most important challenging comments..anti war anti imperialism!

Kyle was spot on with this video MLK was the black Bernie Sanders of his time ! Kyle drop the mic 🎤 you nailed this topic flawlessly sir !

"Marx reveals the danger of the profit motive as the sole basis for an economic system. We must heed this challenge. I’m afraid that there are too many people in America concerned about making a living rather than making a life." (1962) -MLK

MLK is the original Social Justice Warrior. But not the kind to get mad at a Pocahontas costume.

"Liberalists please respond" Sargon "the conservative supporting liberal" of Akkad

But Kyle Prager "U" and Dave "Im a liberal" Rubin told me he would be a conservative now so you must be wrong.

George Bush made MLK day official. I roll my eyes anytime I hear someone bring that up as if it has any meaning. There are people who make days about things, and people who go out there and make a difference.

imagine if MLK had a youtube channel today

Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. may be the greatest American ever. Yes there were many great Americans many unsung heroes and many well known peoples. Dr. King really embodies everything an american should be, or at least aspire to be.

I love you bro, thanks for the education you do.

As a black man(that’s right, identity politics 😉), I love how you recognize MLK day every year. I appreciate the sentiment and genuine coverage of his policies and philosophy. Thanks Kyle.

"Richard Spencer is the white MLK." - Sargon of Cuntard

Thank you, rip. MLK. It's up to us to continue his legacy. Don't let his sacrifice go in Vane.

"MLK would be a trump supporter today." -Sargon of Akkad

If MLK was still alive today we wouldn't have so many lost people fighting there own kind over surface matters that we should be long past decades ago...

"Change always happens when millions of people demand it. When the American people stand up and fight, they win." Bernie Sanders

Fox news would have hated him

I wonder how the world would be if it was him that was America's first black president instead of Obama 🤔🤔🤔...

“The more sophisticated surely understand that we are on the side of the wealthy and secure while we create a hell for the poor. Somehow, this madness must cease.” - MLK Jr. “Beyond Vietnam”

the whole truth and nothing but the truth 👍

'If Martin Luther was living, he wouldn't let this be'.

YOOOO, this is absolutely your best video yet.

"Alex Jones knows stuff." - Sargon "The LIBERALIST" Of Cuckard

This is one of your best videos Kyle! I really appreciate it!

"I have a new dream, its that these damn kids pull up their pants and stop kneeling during my Football!!!" -MLK 2018

Establishment: I denounce you for opposing us! MLK dies. Establishment: Lets use his legacy for our benefit!

"A man dies when he refuses to stand up for that which is right. A man dies when he refuses to stand up for justice. A man dies when he refuses to take a stand for that which is true." ~Martin Luther King Jr. (1965)

Great job on this Kile... I love your show... one of the few real news👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽

Kyle, I love that you break this down every year. Thank you so much for doing this!

No wonder he was targeted through COINTELPRO

It is absolutely stunning how MLK's words perfectly reflect todays world, and how much hard truth are in what he said.

my 99.9% white tiny arkansas school didn't even get out to acknowledge MLK day...

Great segment kyle

RIP Dolores O'riordan!

While he's most known for his "I Have A Dream" speech, I've always loved his speech, "A Time To Break Silence," much more.

This is one of the most important videos you've done. Very well said.

Thank you Kyle for making this video. I consider myself democratic socialist too and Dr.King is one my favorite political figures. Many people don't know that he was a socialist who push for free health care and better standard of living for all Americans. For those of you interested in learning more about socialism please hear me out. Not all socialists are the same its a diverse political school of thought with many different variations. It is not like fascism and nazism which both follow the same authoritarian ideas and policies. Marxists,democratic socialists and, anarchists are all socialist yet they disagree on the way to Implement socialist policies. It annoys me when the right and these so called rational skeptics try to paint socialism with a broad brush just to shoot it down. The left is more then just one idea and i hope one day leftists realize that. God bless you Dr.King may your entire legacy live on through men and women of truth. In a time of deceit speaking truth is itself a revolutionary act - George Orwell.

MLK was also very anti-Gay marriage, anti-abortion, and he called jazz "devils music". He was a straight up conservative on social issues

"During the lifetime of great revolutionaries, the oppressing classes constantly hounded them, received their theories with the most savage malice, the most furious hatred and the most unscrupulous campaigns of lies and slander. After their death, attempts are made to convert them into harmless icons, to canonize them, so to say, and to hallow their names to a certain extent for the “consolation” of the oppressed classes and with the object of duping the latter, while at the same time robbing the revolutionary theory of its substance, blunting its revolutionary edge and vulgarizing it." - V.I. Lenin

Fantastic, need more history clips like this one.

Great video Kyle.

Powerful video Kyle and educational. MLK's experience and his REAL history serves as a painful reminder you have to oppose the American government on everything they do, because they surely will lead you down the wrong path.

Excellent presentation!

MLK is the Bernie Sanders of 1960

I love the Boondocks MLK episode. The bus scene is hilarious.

Wow, you're on a roll today, Kyle. Keep that passion going. You're inspiring many people to take action.

I'm Norwegian, and your rant almost made me cry. :( I hate how democratic socialism is misrepresented in the US news, to demonize and alienize it. Martin Luther King knew what was up.

Kyle one of your best vids ever.

Great reporting. 168 newspapers? I didn't know that?

Keep it up man!!! ✌🏿

What he says from 15:40 to the end of the video is sublime.

I'm starting to feel that we've integrated into a burning house. - MLK

The Capitalist Party Oligarchy has two wings: 1) Democrats who feel that civil rights should be fostered, so that anger at racism will not hamper their maintenance of wealth inequality, and 2) Republicans who feel that keeping people fighting over civil rights is the best way to maintain wealth inequality. Here is another of King's 1967 series of speeches when he took the gloves off about the Vietnam War and the three evils of racism, materialism and militarism. In this one he called for "creative maladjustment" as an appropriate response to the evils that support war, poverty, and racism. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/oJ6UYKyKuLORYGw.html Text: www.scribd.com/doc/134362247/Martin-Luther-King-Jr-The-Three-Evils-of-Society-1967

Ty for enlightening me... Ty very much...

Damn Kyle. Just wow. This is the 2nd best segment of TYT I seen(i mean Cenk cried once) best segment of secular talk I've ever seen

Mlk was an anti SJW Vlogger and he used to do podcasts about the Bell Curve. The real socialist and egalitarian SJW was hitler. Thanks all x x

take necessities from the masses to give luxurie's to the classes... Brilliant Line Kyle, i've gotta use that 1 for sure !.

If you just said that quote it sounds like it was written by a millennial in 2017 It's kind of mindblowing that it was MLK 60ish years ago

It should not be forgotten that more than a few civil rights campaigners lost their lives in car bombs and other incidents Dr king, loved globally and awarded the Nobel peace prize but hated in his own country.....sigh

Nice one.

This was some heat 🔥🔥🔥

“The solution to poverty is to abolish it directly by a now widely discussed measure: The guaranteed income.” Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

MLK´s message has gone through a Disneyfication through the years. It´s such a shame and embarrasing that some people think they know his message but in reality don´t.

And soon you will have the chance to elect a guy who marched With Martin Luther King. Don't fuck it up, America.

I love you so much Kyle.

Have a major US newspaper ever been against any war?

Slow to half speed for drunk Kyle.

MLK sounded like a bernie sanders voter and bernie sounds like a MLK voter. That is why MLK's friend, Harry Belafonte voted for sanders.

Been watching for a few years now...saw the post on "Turning 30...400 million etc..." this is one of the Strongest pieces I have seen! #TooStrong

See speech "Beyond Vietnam". Extremely relevant to the video. Funnily enough, it was one of the last speeches he did before he was assassinated.

Yup, the civil rights movement and MLK weren't popular with society at large.

Martin Luther King Jr. once said, “It may well be that we will have to repent in this generation. Not merely for the vitriolic words and the violent actions of the bad people, but for the appalling silence and indifference of the good people who sit around and say, "Wait on time.” One is also cautioned to beware of the indifferent. It is with their tacit consent that all evil is committed on earth! By casting your vote for Jill Stein, you displayed indifference toward your fellow Americans.

It's possible for a man to be correct on some things but incorrect on others

The only news I heard about MLK day was how Trump was golfing.

It's such a shame. I don't believe in heaven, but if there is a heaven then MLK is looking down at our current state in deep disappointment. Victory hasn't yet been had against discrimination, bigotry, greed, and violence. We're not even close.

What is the actual oldest trick in the book?

This feels like a really bad argument. Don't get me wrong: I agree with the whole "America needs to be more socialist in some ways, and anti-imperial in ALL ways" thing. But going "Martin Luther King said these things, and he said other things we agree with, so we should agree with all his things" isn't going to convert anyone.
