Dr. King has been name-checked a lot lately. He provides many lessons for today but only if we understand his work, North & South, including with gang members & the ways he too was called unreasonable, un-American & arrogant. Five lessons for Juneteenth: thenation.com/article/activi…

Like everything Jeanne T. writes about the movement south & north, this is very worth your time. But this one is especially revelatory; please include reading it in your celebration of Juneteenth.

Jeanne Theoharis, author of a new book on Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., shares five lessons that you can learn from the civil rights leader this Juneteenth. thenation.com/article/activi…

I wrote this because I was tired of people distorting Dr. King and the civil rights movement lately in terms of the ‘right way’ to protest. Five lessons from the actual Dr. King:

What Dr. King Would Do in LA (Because This Is What He Actually Did) f.mtr.cool/fgzwdwygfr  King’s nonviolence wasn’t just marches and lunch counter sit-ins but school boycotts, rent strikes, and the disruption of city and business life. Jeanne Theoharis #mlk

Worth noting: Zohran Mamdami did this without the support of the two most powerful Democrats in Congress, Chuck Schumer & Hakeem Jeffries. Zohran campaigned aggressively, took risks, and went *everywhere.* A massive win. This is political history & it’s amazing.

In response to protests & direct action against ICE kidnappings, some have distorted Martin Luther King Jr. @jeannetheoharis reminds us that MLK supported civil disobedience: “Mass civil disobedience can use rage as a constructive and creative force.” King stressed.

I called Kirsten Gillibrand to tell her this kind of Islamophobia towards Zohran Kwame Mamdani is shameful and has no place in New York and in the Democratic Party. Please call her office and make clear how unacceptable this is.

They ordered the Thomas Jefferson statue from China and paid tariffs for it. China mass produce them. Same one on the University of Missouri campus

If you only read one thing today, read this!
