MISSISSIPPI MAYOR HOPES TO HONOR MARTIN LUTHER KING JR 'RIGHT WAY' AFTER CONTROVERSYThe Chicago branch of Black Lives Matter pushed the #ReclaimMLK hashtag on Twitter, claiming Martin Luther King Day would allow activists to "engage about the real radical King they don't want you to know about!" "Let's discuss racism from a peace with justice perspective," she tweeted ahead of Martin Luther King Day. However, I think King's work and the work we do are part of the larger tradition of black radical resistance." We had a long cold winter when little was done about the conditions that create riots," King said in June 1967. Remembering King as a community organizer places his movement alongside contemporary activism, said Patrisse Cullors, co-founder of Black Lives Matter.
