Martin L. King Jr. On Politicians and Oligarchs
About this book
Dr. King was correct when he stated that Black political leaders are surrogates for White power . The destruction of Black leadership is the most damaging crisis affecting the Black community. Unless this problem is solved, nothing beneficial will develop out of the unholy alliance between African American politicians and White liberals.Black leadership is dead . They abandoned King’s philosophy of direct confrontation, which was responsible for the meager gains African Americans made in the 1960s. Real Black leadership was destroyed by White liberals and was replaced by what Dr. King called “manufactured leaders.” These corporate-appointed Black leaders are disconnected from the community and serve at the behest of their White political handlers.The uncritical support for the Democratic Party platform, and especially weak leaders like Nancy Pelosi and Joe Biden, has placed the Black community in an extremely vulnerable position. The community lacks direction, because of its inability to select leaders to represent their interests. Since the Black community is not permitted to choose those best to represent their concerns, they are made to accept the weak candidates forced upon them.African Americans are in trouble . Their political handlers have stripped them of their authority to make positive changes in their communities. The killing of unarmed Black adults and children by White police officers is a clear sign that African Americans are under a systematic military style of attack. Why hasn’t the Democratic Party leadership made solving this issue a priority? Where is Nancy Pelosi when it really counts?
