do you really think this thread is a good place to debate the relevance of martin luther king as over against malcolm x?
there is a potentially interesting debate to be had about that--but the chances of it happening in this thread are close to nil--and that because it reintroduces the problem of how one thinks about racism and its history and the relation of that history to the present in the united states.
this is one of the central disagreements between pan, bringer of Unity Peace Love and Understanding, and the rest of us, all of whom sow hate and negativity and division.
