oh here we go white people quoting MLK as an argument against POC MLK QUOTES ARE NOT YOURS TO USE AS A WEAPON AGAINST US. THEY AREN’T YOURS TO USE IN ANY WAY SHAPE OR FORM ANYWAY.

“First, I must confess that over the last few years I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action;” who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a “more convenient season."

Letter from Birmingham Jail By Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., 16 April 1963

If you are a white person about to quote Martin Luther King in order to shut up poc, but especially black people, shut the fuck up, and just take a quote from a plantation owner, or hitler, because you are willfully allowing the genocide of poc through the hands of whites ~
