No, there are numerous other examples. His first sermon at Ebenezer Baptist Church was lifted from a homily entitled “Life Is What You Make It” by Harry Emerson Fosdick. Martin Luther King, Jr.’s first book Stride Toward Freedom, largely ghost-written by his mentor Stanley Levinson, had many passages lifted from several sources. He took verbatim passages from “The Finding of God” by Edgar S. Brightman for a paper submitted at Crozer Theological Seminary titled “The Place of Reason & Experience in Finding God.” Martin Luther King, Jr. lifted another paper handed in at Boston University, “Contemporary Continental Theology,” from a book by Walter Marshall Horton. The final section of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s most famous speech, “I Have a Dream,” was from a speech given by Archibald Carey at the 1956 Republican National Convention.

7. What was Martin Luther King, Jr. heard to exclaim at the Willard Hotel in Washington, D.C., on FBI recordings?

“I’m f - - king for God,” and “I’m not a Negro tonight,” according to Newsweek magazine, page 62, published January 19, 1998. The Willard Hotel room bug yielded nineteen reels of tape detailing Martin Luther King, Jr.’s extra-marital and inter-racial sexual escapades.

8. Who paid for Martin Luther King, Jr.’s prostitutes?

Some funds from both Ebenezer Baptist Church and the Southern Christian Leadership Council (S.C.L.C.) were used to pay for some of Martin Luther King, Jr.'s sexual liaisons as well as for the food and liquor consumed at his orgies.

9. What was the Highlander Folk School, which was attended by both Martin Luther King, Jr. and Rosa Parks?

Myles Horton and Don West founded the Highlander Folk School, originally named Commonwealth College, in 1932. Both were Communist Party organizers. Besides recruiting future members, the Highlander Folk School was used as a way “to infiltrate the African-American community by, among other techniques, comparing the texts of the New Testament to those of Karl Marx.” Many civil rights’ groups, including the Southern Christian Leadership Council (S.C.L.C.), used it for training leaders. In 1962, Horton with Martin Luther King, Jr. as a sponsor, opened a satellite school in Knoxville, Tennessee. The Julius Rosenwald Fund financed it. Rosenwald’s daughter, Edith Stern, continued donations after her husband Alfred was indicted on spy charges and fled to Russia to escape arrest.

10. With whom and why did Martin Luther King, Jr. meet at the Highlander Folk School in Monteagle, Tennessee, over Labor Day, 1957?

Bayard Rustin was his personal secretary from 1955 to 1960 and was the organizer of the Washington marches. Rustin was a member of the Young Communist League. He attended the 1957 Convention of the Communist Party USA in February 1957. One month later, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (S.C.L.C.) was formed. Before organizing the first March on Washington held in March 1958, Rustin went to Moscow. Rustin, then affiliated with the War Resisters League, also organized the second Washington March held on August 28, 1963. He served prison and jail sentences “for draft-dodging, lewd vagrancy, and homosexual perversion.”

13. Who was Jack O’Dell and what was his relationship to Martin Luther King, Jr.?

Jack O’Dell, a.k.a. Hunter Pitts O’Dell, became Martin Luther King, Jr.’s secretary in 1961. As of 1962, O’Dell was a member of the National Committee of the Communist Party, USA, having been a member of the party since 1956. He was made Acting Director of the Southern Christian Leadership Conference (S.C.L.C.) on October 26, 1962. When the St. Louis Globe-Democrat revealed O’Dell’s communist affiliation, Martin Luther King, Jr. made a grand pretext of firing O’Dell. King, then, quietly rehired O’Dell as director of the New York office of the S.C.L.C.

14. What did the Communist Party USA’s official newspaper The Worker say about Martin Luther King, Jr. and his efforts?

The Worker called the first March on Washington in 1958 “a Communist project.” Benjamin J. Davis, in an article published in The Worker on November 10, 1963, praised Martin Luther King, Jr. as “a brilliant and practical leader.”

15. Who helped fund Martin Luther King, Jr.’s activities?

Karl Prussian, an FBI counterspy to the Communist Party USA, swore in testimony to Congress on March 30, 1965, that Martin Luther King, Jr. “willingly accepted support from over sixty Communist fronts” as well as individuals acknowledged and well-known to be avowed Communists. King held a financial conference with Communist Party representatives, unaware that one was an FBI infiltrator. A black member of the Communist Party USA of Cleveland and an FBI informant testified before the Senate Judiciary Committee in 1979 that “we [the cells of the Communist Party USA] were continually being asked to raise money for Martin Luther King’s activities and to support his movement…I knew Martin Luther King to be closely connected with the Communist Party…” King received at least one check signed by a registered foreign agent of Fidel Castro, Benjamin Smith.

16. Was Martin Luther King, Jr. a communist?

No, Martin Luther King, Jr. was not a card-carrying member of the Communist Party. However, he described himself as a Marxist to his biographer, David Garrow who wrote The FBI and Martin Luther King, Jr. King told Southern Christian Leadership Conference (S.C.L.C.) staffers at a meeting, “We have moved into a new era, which must be an era of revolution…We are engaged in the class struggle.” One of King’s more radical causes in his later years was a call for a government-quaranteed “minimum – and livable – income for every American family,” whether people were working or not as “a radical reconstruction of society itself.” He told a friend, “If we [Negroes] are to achieve real equality, the United States will have to adopt a modified form of socialism.” King preached at a retreat for civil rights’ movement leaders, “Something is wrong with capitalism.” In his sermon to the Clergy and Laity Concerned on April 4, 1967, King ridiculed Western culture as “arrogant,” called for the abandonment of “nationalism,” compared U.S. troops in Vietnam to Nazis, and warned, “We must not engage in a negative anti-communism.”

17. What book did Martin Luther King, Jr. write the forward to, despite his espousal of non-violence?

Martin Luther King, Jr. wrote the forward to the book Negroes with Guns by Robert Williams, a black from Monroe, North Carolina, who moved to Cuba. Williams is best known for his “Radio Free Dixie” broadcasts from Havana over Fidel Castro’s high-powered AM transmitters. These radio shows, broadcasted three times a week, called for blacks to violently attack whites in the United States. The book’s editors and publisher were supporters of the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, a Communist front. Presidential assassin Lee Harvey Oswald belonged to the group, also.

18. What liberal Martin Luther King, Jr. supporter and FBI Assistant Director was assigned to investigate him by J. Edgar Hoover?

William C. Sullivan wrote, at the beginning of his assignment, “I was one hundred percent for King…because I saw him as an effective and badly needed leader for the Black people in their desire for civil rights.” Sullivan’s view changed over the years as he came to know the details of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s life and work. Sullivan, a thirty-year veteran of the FBI, concluded that King was “one of only seven people he had ever encountered who was a total degenerate.” In his official report to J. Edgar Hoover, Sullivan wrote that King “is the most dangerous Negro of the future in this Nation from the standpoint of Communism, the Negro, and national security.”

19. Why are the FBI files on Martin Luther King, Jr. authorized by Attorney General Robert F. Kennedy, sealed until 2027?

Because the sealed FBI files reveal Martin Luther King, Jr.’s conduct in numerous “orgiastic and adulterous escapades, some of which indicated that King could be bestial in his sexual abuse of women,” according to Assistant FBI Director Charles D. Brennan in a letter to North Carolina Senator John P. East. Coretta Scott King, widow of Martin Luther King, Jr. requested the sealing of these files because its release "would destroy his reputation.”

20. Why won’t the media or educators reveal the whole truth about Martin Luther King, Jr. and his movement?

Because the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday has become a profitable “feel-good lie” in the words of writer Geov Parrish. One unnamed veteran of the civil rights’ movement admitted, “Everybody was out getting laid.” In “Remembering Martin Luther King, Jr.,” his friend Richard John Neuhaus reluctantly admitted “The movement…contained moral ingredients that would later become the libertine ‘counterculture’ of drugs and sexual license.” Furthermore, he admitted there would be no approval of the King holiday today if the truth were known. David Lewis wrote in his 1970 book King: A Critical Biography, “In the nation’s canonization of Martin King…we have sought to remember him by forgetting him.” Gerard Eisterhold designed the display of the Lorraine Motel rooms, where King was shot, at the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis. Eisterhold refused to include any depiction of the rooms’ occupants because it would be “close to blasphemy.”
