“When I went to Montgomery as a pastor, I had not the slightest idea that I would later become involved in a crisis in which non-violent resistance would be applicable. I neither started the protest nor suggested it. I simply responded to the call of the people for a spokesman. When the protest began, my mind, consciously or unconsciously, was driven back to the Sermon on the Mount, with its sublime teachings on love, and to the Gandhian method of nonviolent resistance.” — From Stride Toward Freedom

Despite the success of the Montgomery Boycott people still see non-violence as a non-answer? Amazing.Great episode of Boondocks on this Sunday night.
King definitely looms as one of those figures I respect more and more the older I get. Sadly, I grew up believing the things others said about him: namely, that he was a rabble rouser and a trouble maker. Hardly. Critics are quick to point out the allegations of infedelity and even plagiarism, but King stands today, a generation later, as the voice of non-violent demonstration in our nation. The fact that I’ve been able to shed the cultural and racial biases that were part of my upbringing is proof of his rich legacy.
