Having a dream

Wait a minute! I know I have memory problems, but it looks like the whole country does too. We just "celebrated" 50 years since the March on Washington and not once was there any mention of Stokely Carmichael, Eldridge Cleaver, Bobby Seale, Malcolm X, Huey Newton, Angela Davis? No mention of angry black voices? Are they whitewashing the civil rights movement? Ohhh, Kennedy was so pleased that nothing happened, he invited the Rev. MLK and friends for a photo op. Why do you think that is? Because people like Malcolm and Eldridge, etc had them scared shitless. Let's tell the real story of the civil rights movement America. It wasn't all that peaceful, a lot of strange fruit hanging from Southern trees and angry black men carrying guns, and cops with dogs and fire hoses and national guard troops shooting at people on hill tops. Oooh, that's all behind us now. We can all hold hands and sing cumbaya now, while Sheriff Joe and Mayor Bloomberg continue the traditions of killing the dream.
