Welcome to our first episode of 2024! Joining us in the Greenhouse for an MLK Day special, we have Professor Hajar Yazdiha to discuss her book The Struggle for The People's King, a book that seems to have captured the entire spirit of everything we try to talk about here on Greenhouse Gaslighting when it comes to the strategic use of political rhetoric and social iconography, as well as the manipulation and distortion of collective memory when it comes to our shared history.

Today on the podcast Katie talks with Seth Lewis, a technical support specialist here to explain how we can find the wonder, beauty, and awe in technology, and specifically in Artificial Intelligence. Katie and Seth discuss how to find balance in our tech use and how we should be skeptical of any existential claims regarding AI. Seth's great advice - "when in doubt, drop the phone!" They also debate and ask big questions about whether there are any redeeming qualities to AI in our tech-saturated society - and whether this is a technology that should be stopped, harnessed, or celebrated. An important discussion for anyone trying to figure out that elusive tech/life balance!    ------ Subscribe to Born of Wonder on Substack https://bornofwonder.substack.com     Support Born of Wonder on Patreon https://www.patreon.com/bornofwonder    www.bornofwonder.com  -------   Music - Blue Dot Sessions   Martin Luther King Jr. "The Three Evils of Society" -  https://www.nwesd.org/ed-talks/equity/the-three-evils-of-society-address-martin-luther-king-jr/    Ugly Numbers from Microsoft and ChatGPT Reveal that AI Demand is Already Shrinking https://www.honest-broker.com/p/ugly-numbers-from-microsoft-and-chatgpt    The Dating Pool Dropouts https://www.thefp.com/p/young-men-who-dropped-out-of-dating-pool    Seth's Recommendation:  Praying the Bible: An Introduction to Lectio Divina  https://www.amazon.com/Praying-Bible-Introduction-Lectio-Divina/dp/0814624464/ref=sr_1_6?crid=1Q19RCHOAJRTG&keywords=praying+the+bible&qid=1695074607&sprefix=praying+the+bibl%2Caps%2C120&sr=8-6    Seth's post interview response/rebuttal:   1. The comparison of AI to the A-bomb is frequently used but misleading. The technology behind AI is more like nuclear energy which is in fact the cleanest and most potent and most sustainable form of energy we have...it is also the most potentially dangerous when applied but the advances made in that field in the past 100 years are unknown to most people because all we think about is the A-bomb. The application of nuclear to the A-bomb is just one of many, many applications and I believe we should continue advancing the application of nuclear forward because it's pros vastly outweigh the cons and it's not even close. I don't exactly believe that so strongly about AI...but mostly. I think the world is far poorer if fields that are potentially dangerous in application find their advancement forcible stunted from the outside. We could've stopped the advancement of the technology and production of cell phones (as some historically communist countries like Cuba have)...but I don't think that's the kind of society we want.    2. Some occupational correction (i.e. people losing work over an emergent technology) is inevitable. That's not to trivialize it - I'm at a lower level at a big employer, so I'm one of the people most likely to be impacted! However, the idea that if an AI can do what a human can, that means there is no more job for the human is, in part, the lump of labor fallacy - interestingly, one of the writers on substack you pointed me to points that out, too, but I didn't read his article until after our talk! In a free (or mostly free) market, even when one opportunity is lost, others are created. Grocery stores are still hiring humans even though almost all have fewer cashiers thanks to the automated/fast checkout lanes (that is a suuuuuper brief and not nuanced comparison...but it is fair).

Catholic Workers – students of peace activism – knowers of Father Berrigan and the Plowshares movement – are already aware that this week was the fourth anniversary of the Kings Bay Plowshares action protesting the U.S. military's nuclear stockpile. It is also the week that Martin Luther King was assassinated, over three decades ago. Less than a year before he was murdered, Dr. King addressed the National Conference of New Politics and argued that the American society was spoiled by 3 evils – Racism, Materialism and Militarism.Three Evils of Society: Racism, Materialism, and MilitarismThis week -- sitting on the edge of the Peace Statue at the Isaiah Wall across from the UN, I spoke with three Catholic Workers who participated and went to jail for cutting through the fence of the largest and most lethal submarine base in the world at Kings Bay, Georgia. They spilt their blood from baby bottles and hung banners calling for nuclear disarmament -- Martha Hennessy - Clare Grady - Mark Colville. We spoke at the end of their day-long walk which started at Riverside Church where MLK had delivered his “3 Evils of Society” speech in 1967. Their walk was organized by the Kings Bay Plowshares 7 group, Ellen Grady and Anthony Donovan. Also, I spoke with Mary Yelenick -- Main Representative at the United Nations for Pax Christi International and a member of the NGO Working Group on the Security Council.

Turning to Dr. King’s Three Evils of Society speech, I thought about a fourth and fifth evil which should be explored and detailed. These Evils, might be more readily called maladies, have been part of America for its entire existence, so they won’t be alien or new to anyone who has had the mind to look deeply at American History for more than 5 years, though even a 5 year cursory look at American History, that being 2015-2020 would probably uncover these maladies also. Birtherism tops that list. But I digress, Dr. King’s Three Evils of Society was an introduction to what he saw as a shifting mission for SCLC, four months prior to delivering that speech he spoke about the original motto for his organization, “To Save the Soul of America” which says a lot about a man whom was to be the most hated person throughout the country because of the speech he used to explain that point. I marvel at his sacrifices during those years, I admire his courage and his honor; for this reason I offer this segment to anyone who cares about this country as much as he did.

The image of Martin Luther King Jr we get today from mainstream media and the school system is of an ultimate pacifist who believed in white America all the way to his bloody end.

On this episode of "By Any Means Necessary" hosts Jacquie Luqman and Sean Blackmon are joined by Garland Nixon, co-host of Fault Lines with Lee Stranahan on Radio Sputnik, to talk about the latest details in ongoing attempts to negotiate a British departure from the European Union, the reasoning behind why different elements of British voted the way they did, and why the muted reactions from the British public to the latest terrorist attack in London may lead some to underestimate its political impact.In the second segment, Sean Blackmon and Jacquie Luqman are joined by Sputnik News Analyst Bob Schlehuber to talk about the latest developments in the Democratic caucus in Iowa, how the backlash against Bernie Sanders betrays a deep discomfort among the political establishment about a rising wave of progressivism in the Democratic party, why socialism is growing in popularity as a progressive ideal and a conservative bogeyman, and why centrist Democrats like Pete Buttigieg and Amy Klobuchar are having trouble carving out a niche for themselves between the left and right wings of the party.In the third segment, Jacquie Luqman and Sean Blackmon are joined by Ollie Vargas, a British/Bolivian writer and editor of EyesOnLatinAmerica.com, to talk about the state of the Left and the Right in Bolivia ahead of the May 3rd elections, why the MAS party is leading in the polls despite the regime continuing to force its upper leadership into jail or exile, and how the US government and international NGOs helped whitewash the coup as it happened and are now giving cover to those who instigated it.Later in the show, Jacquie and Sean are joined by Devyn Springer, host of the Groundings podcast and Digital Media Manager of the Walter Rodney Foundation, to talk about the failures by both major political party to address what MLK identified as the Three Evils in the world (racism, exploitation, and militarism), how the shared experience of living under colonization led to the Palestinian liberation struggle being so intertwined with the Black liberation struggle, why the peace plan proposed by Donald Trump is just a rewording of apartheid, the politics of the Superbowl Halftime show, why US 'culture' relies so heavily on Black experience while actively erasing Black history from the dominant narrative, how the legacy of white supremacy in the US has left Black people as "country-less citizens," why the sharpening divide between rich and poor in cities across the country is gutting the concept of the American Dream, why we need to restructure our society to be able to begin to end racism, sexism, and homophobia here, the limitations of social democracy and a Sanders presidency more broadly, the health and sanitation crisis inside Parchman prison that's left nearly a dozen incarcerated people dead this year, how the presumption of guilt undergirds widespread public acceptance of dehumanizing and punitive carceral conditions, and why prisons are less oriented towards resolving problems like crime or drug abuse and more oriented towards hiding them.

Martin Luther King Jr connects US imperialism and war-making in Vietnam to the violent racism and impoverishment of Black and colonized people within the United States. Music: "Another Holy Man" - Floyd Westerman Red Crow (1988)

Dr. King's legacy is often reduced to the famous "Dream" speech, but the real power of his voice, his commitment to his faith was not only in his rejection of racism, but in his rejection of economic exploitation and militarism. The address heard in this work are not in order, but they certainly sound like they could be. Dr. King's message was so consistent and sound that moving the beginning to the end, or the middle to the beginning took nothing away from it at all. Dr. King was a truth teller, in a world that couldn't handle the truth. Music Tariq I. El-Amin Dr. King's "Why I Oppose Vietnam" & "The Three Evils of Society" are used here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=j8d-IYSM-08&t=2017s

Episode Cover Photo Attribution - Bob Fitch Photography Archive, © Stanford University Libraries https://purl.stanford.edu/bc967hk3892  The Three Evils of Society - Transcript Delivered at the National Conference on New Politics, August 31, 1967.   Mr. Chairman, friends and brothers in this first gathering of the National Conference on New Politics. Ladiesand gentlemen. . .can you hear me in the back? (No) I don’t know if the Klan is in here tonight or not with allthe troubles we’re having with these microphones. Seldom if ever. . . .has. . . .we’re still working with it. As I was about to say, seldom if ever has such a diverse and truly ecumenical gathering convened under the egis of politics in our nation, and I want to commend the leadership of the National Conference on NewPolitics for all of the great work that they have done in making this significant convention possible. Indeed byour very nature we affirm that something new is taking place on the American political horizon. We have comehere from the dusty plantations of the Deep South and the depressing ghettos of the North. We have come fromthe great universities and the flourishing suburbs. We have come from Appalachian poverty and from consciousstricken wealth. But we have come. And we have come here because we share a common concern for the moralhealth of our nation. We have come because our eyes have seen through the superficial glory and glitter of our society and observed the coming of judgment. Like the prophet of old, we have read the handwriting on the wall. We have seen our nation weighed in the balance of history and found wanting. We have come because wesee this as a dark hour in the affairs of men.For most of us this is a new mood. We are traditionally the idealists. We are the marchers fromMississippi and Selma and Washington, who staked our lives on the American Dream during the first half of this decade. Many assembled here campaigned lasciviously for Lyndon Johnson in 1964 because we could notstand ideally by and watch our nation contaminated by the 18th Century policies of Goldwaterism. We were thehardcore activists who were willing to believe that Southerners could be reconstructed in the constitutionalimage. We were the dreamers of a dream – that dark yesterdays of mans inhumanity to man would soon betransformed into bright tomorrows of justice. Now it is hard to escape, the disillusionment and betrayal. Our hopes have been blasted and our dreams have been shattered. The promise of a Great Society was shipwreckedoff the coast of Asia, on the dreadful peninsula of Vietnam. The poor, black and white, are still perishing on alonely island of poverty in the midst of a vast ocean of material prosperity. What happens to a dream deferred?It leads to bewildering frustration and corroding bitterness.I came to see this in a personal experience here in Chicago last summer. In all the speaking I have donein the United States before varied audiences, including some hostile whites, the only time I have ever been booed was one night in our regular weekly mass meetings by some angry young men of our movement. Now Iwent home that night with an ugly feeling. Selfishly I thought of my suffering and sacrifices over the last twelveyears. Why would they boo one so close to them? But as I lay awake thinking. I finally came to myself. And Icould not for the life of me have less impatience and understanding for those young men. For twelve years, I amothers like me, have held out radiant promises of progress. I had preached to them about my dream. I hadlectured to them about, the not to distant day when they would have freedom, all here, now. I had urged them tohave faith in America and in white society. Their hopes had soared. They were now booing me because they feltthat we were unable to deliver on our promises. They were booing because we had urged them to have faith in people who had too often proved to be unfaithful. They were now hostile because they were watching the dreamthat they had so readily accepted, turn into a frustrating nightmare. This situation is all the more ominous, inview of the rising expectations of men the world over. The deep rumblings that we hear today, the rumblings of discontent, is the thunder of disinherited masses rising from dungeons of oppressions to the bright hills of freedom. All over the world like a fever, freedom is spreading in the widest liberation movement in history. Thegreat masses of people are determined to end the exploitation of their races and lands. And in one majestic chorus they are singing in the worlds of our freedom song, “ain’t gonna let nobody turn us around”. And so the collision course is set. The people cry for freedom and the congress attempts to legislaterepression. Millions, yes billions, are appropriated for mass murder; but the most meager pittance for foreignaid for international development is crushed in the surge of reaction. Unemployment rages at a major depressionlevel in the black ghettos, but the bi-partisan response is an anti-riot bill rather than a serious poverty program.The modest proposals for model cities, rent supplement and rat control, pitiful as they were to began with, getcaught in the maze of congressional inaction. And I submit to you tonight, that a congress that proves to be more anti-negro than anti-rat needs to be dismissed. It seems that our legislative assemblies have adopted Nero as their patron saint and are bent on fiddling while our cities burn. Even when the people persist and in the face of great obstacles, develop indigenous leadership and self-help approaches to their problems and finally tread the forest of bureaucracy to obtain existing governmentfunds, the corrupt political order seeks to crush even this beginning of hope. The case of CDGM in Mississippiis the most publicized example but it is a story repeated many times across our nation.Our own experience here in Chicago is especially painfully present. After an enthusiastic approval by H.E. W’s Department of Adult Education, SCLC began an adult literacy project to aid 1,000 young men and women who have been pushed out of overcrowded ghetto schools, in obtaining basic [literary] skills prerequisite to receiving jobs. We had an agreement with A&P stores for 750 jobs through SCLC’s job program, Operation Breadbasket and had recruited over 500 pupils the first week. At that point CongressmenPaccinski and the Daley machine intervened and demanded that Washington cut off our funds or channel themthrough the machine controlled poverty program in Chicago. Now we have no problem with administrativesupervision, but we do have a desire to be independent of machine control and the Democratic Party patronagenetwork. For this desire for a politically independent approach to the needs of our brothers, our funds are beingstopped as of September 15th and a very meaningful program discontinued. Yes the hour is dark, evil comesfourth in the guise of good. It is a time of double talk when men in high places have a high blood pressure of deceptive rhetoric and an anemia of concrete performance.We cry out against welfare hand outs to the poor but generously approve an oil depletion allowance tomake the rich, richer. Six Mississippi plantations receive more than a million dollars a year, not to plant cotton but no provision is made to feed the tenant farmer who is put out of work by the government subsidy. Thecrowning achievement in hypocrisy must go to those staunch Republicans and Democrats of the Midwest andWest who were given land by our government when they came here as immigrants from Europe. They weregiven education through the land grant colleges. They were provided with agricultural agents to keep themabreast of forming trends, they were granted low interest loans to aid in the mechanization of their farms andnow that they have succeeded in becoming successful, they are paid not to farm and these are the same people that now say to black people, who’s ancestors were brought to this country in chains and who were emancipatedin 1863 without being given land to cultivate or bread to eat; that they must pull themselves up by their own bootstraps. What they truly advocate is Socialism for the rich and Capitalism for the poor. I wish that I could say that this is just a passing phase in the cycles of our nation’s life; certainly times of war, times of reaction throughout the society but I suspect that we are now experiencing the coming to thesurface of a triple prong sickness that has been lurking within our body politic from its very beginning. That isthe sickness of racism, excessive materialism and militarism. Not only is this our nation’s dilemma it is the plaque of western civilization. As early as 1906 W. E. B Dubois prophesized that the problem of the 20th century, would be the problem of the color line, now as we stand two-thirds into this crucial period of historywe know full well that racism is still that hound of hell which dogs the tracks of our civilization. Ever since the birth of our nation, White America has had a Schizophrenic personality on the question of race, she has beentorn between selves. A self in which she proudly profess the great principle of democracy and a self in whichshe madly practices the antithesis of democracy. This tragic duality has produced a strange indecisiveness andambivalence toward the Negro, causing America to take a step backwards simultaneously with every stepforward on the question of Racial Justice; to be at once attracted to the Negro and repelled by him, to love andto hate him. There has never been a solid, unified and determined thrust to make justice a reality for Afro-Americans. The step backwards has a new name today, it is called the white backlash, but the white backlash isnothing new. It is the surfacing of old prejudices, hostilities and ambivalences that have always been there. Itwas caused neither by the cry of black power nor by the unfortunate recent wave of riots in our cities. The white backlash of today is rooted in the same problem that has characterized America ever since the black man landedin chains on the shores of this nation.This does not imply that all White Americans are racist, far from it. Many white people have, through adeep moral compulsion fought long and hard for racial justice nor does it mean that America has made no progress in her attempt to cure the body politic of the disease of racism or that the dogma of racism has beenconsiderably modified in recent years. However for the good of America, it is necessary to refute the idea thatthe dominant ideology in our country, even today, is freedom and equality while racism is just an occasional departure from the norm on the part of a few bigoted extremists. Racism can well be, that corrosive evil thatwill bring down the curtain on western civilization. Arnold Toynesbee has said that some twenty-six civilizationhave risen upon the face of the Earth, almost all of them have descended into the junk heap of destruction. Thedecline and fall of these civilizations, according to Toynesbee, was not caused by external invasion but byinternal decay. They failed to respond creatively to the challenges impingent upon them. If America does notrespond creatively to the challenge to banish racism, some future historian will have to say, that a greatcivilization died because it lacked the soul and commitment to make justice a reality for all men. The second aspect of our afflicted society is extreme materialism, an Asian writer has portrayed our dilemma in candid terms, he says, “you call your thousand material devices labor saving machinery, yet you are forever busy. With the multiplying of your machinery you grow increasingly fatigued, anxious, nervous,dissatisfied. Whatever you have you want more and where ever you are you want to go somewhere else. Your devices are neither time saving nor soul saving machinery. They are so many sharp spurs which urge you on toinvent more machinery and to do more business”. This tells us something about our civilization that cannot be caste aside as a prejudiced charge by an eastern thinker who is jealous of Western prosperity. We cannot escapethe indictment. This does not mean that we must turn back the clock of scientific progress. No one can overlook the wonders that science has wrought for our lives. The automobile will not abdicate in favor of the horse and buggy or the train in favor of the stage coach or the tractor in favor of the hand plow or the scientific method infavor of ignorance and superstition. But our moral lag must be redeemed; when scientific power outruns moral power, we end up with guided missiles and misguided men. When we foolishly maximize the minimum andminimize the maximum we sign the warrant for our own day of doom.It is this moral lag in our thing-oriented society that blinds us to the human reality around us andencourages us in the greed and exploitation which creates the sector of poverty in the midst of wealth. Again wehave diluted ourselves into believing the myth that Capitalism grew and prospered out of the protestant ethic of hard word and sacrifice, the fact is that Capitalism was build on the exploitation and suffering of black slavesand continues to thrive on the exploitation of the poor –  both black and white, both here and abroad. If Negroesand poor whites do not participate in the free flow of wealth within our economy, they will forever be poor,giving their energies, their talents and their limited funds to the consumer market but reaping few benefits andservices in return. The way to end poverty is to end the exploitation of the poor, ensure them a fair share of thegovernment services and the nation’s resources. I proposed recently that a national agency be established to provide employment for everyone needing it. Nothing is more socially inexcusable than unemployment in thisage. In the 30s when the nation was bankrupt it instituted such an agency, the WPA, in the present conditions of a nation glutted with resources, it is barbarous to condemn people desiring work to soul sapping inactivity and poverty. I am convinced that even this one, massive act of concern will do more than all the state police andarmies of the nation to quell riots and still hatreds. The tragedy is, our materialistic culture does not possess thestatesmanship necessary to do it.  Victor Hugo could have been thinking of 20th Century America when he wrote, “there’s always more misery among the lower classes than there is humanity in the higher classes”. The time has come for America to face the inevitable choice between materialism and humanism. We must devote at least as much to our children’s education and the health of the poor  as we do to the care of our automobiles andthe building of beautiful, impressive hotels. We must also realize that the problems of racial injustice and economic injustice cannot be solvedwithout a radical redistribution of political and economic power. We must further recognize that the ghetto is adomestic colony. Black people must develop programs that will aid in the transfer of power and wealth into thehands of residence of the ghetto so that they may in reality control their own destinies. This is the meaning of New Politics. People of will in the larger community, must support the black man in this effort. The final phase of our national sickness is the disease of militarism. Nothing more clearly demonstrates our nation’s abuse of military power than our tragic adventure in Vietnam. This war has played havoc with thedestiny of the entire world. It has torn up the Geneva Agreement, it has seriously impaired the United Nations, ithas exacerbated the hatred between continents and worst still between races. It has frustrated our developmentat home, telling our own underprivileged citizens that we place insatiable military demands above their criticalneeds. It has greatly contributed to the forces of reaction in America and strengthened the military industrialcomplex. And it has practically destroyed Vietnam and left thousands of American and Vietnamese youthmaimed and mutilated and exposed the whole world to the risk of nuclear warfare. Above all, the War in Vietnam, has revealed what Senator Fulbright calls, “our nations arrogance of power”. We are arrogant in professing to be concerned about the freedom of foreign nations while not setting our own house in order. Manyof our Senators and Congressmen vote joyously to appropriate billions of dollars for the War in Vietnam andmany of these same Senators and Congressmen vote loudly against a Fair Housing Bill to make it possible for a Negro veteran of Vietnam to purchase a decent home. We arm Negro soldiers to kill on foreign battlefields butoffer little protection for their relatives from beatings and killings in our own South. We are willing to make a Negro 100% of a citizen in Warfare but reduce him to 50% of a citizen on American soil. No war in our nation’s history has ever been so violative of our conscious, our national interest and sodestructive of our moral standing before the world. No enemy has ever been able to cause such damage to us aswe inflict upon ourselves. The inexorable decay of our urban centers has flared into terrifying domestic conflictas the pursuit of foreign war absolves our wealth and energy. Squalor and poverty scar our cities as our militarymight destroy cities in a far off land to support oligarchy, to intervene in domestic conflict. The President who cherishes consensus for peace has intensified the war in answer to a cry to stop the war. It has broughttauntingly to one minutes flying time from China to a moment before the midnight of world conflagration. We are offered a tax for war instead of a plan for peace. Men of reason should no longer debate, the merits of war or means of financing war. They should end the war and restore sanity and humanity to American policy. And if the will of the people continue to be unheeded, all men of free will must create a situation in which the 1967, 68are made a referendum on the War. The American people must have an opportunity to vote into oblivion thosewho cannot detach themselves from militarism, and those that lead us.So we are here because we believe, we hope, we pray that something new might emerge in the politicallife of this nation which will produce a new man, new structures and new institutions and a new life for mankind. I am convinced that this new life will not emerge until our nation undergoes a radical revolution of values. When machines and computers, profit motives and property rights are considered more important than people the giant triplets of racism, economic exploitation and militarism are incapable of being conquered. A civilization can flounder as readily in the face of moral bankruptcy as it can through financial bankruptcy. Atrue revolution of values will soon cause us to question the fairness and justice of many of our past and present policies. We are called to play the Good Samaritan on life’s road side, but that will only be an initial act. One day the whole Jericho Road must be transformed so that men and women will not be beaten and robbed as theymake their journey through life. True compassion is more than flinging a coin to a beggar, it understands that anedifice which produces beggars, needs restructuring. A true revolution of values will soon look uneasily on theglaring contrast of poverty and wealth, with righteous indignation it will look at thousands of working peopledisplaced from their jobs, with reduced incomes as a result of automation while the profits of the employersremain in tact and say, this is not just. It will look across the ocean and see individual Capitalists of the Westinvesting huge sums of money in Asia and Africa only to take the profits out with no concern for the social betterment of the countries and say, this is not just. It will look at our alliance with the landed gentry of LatinAmerica and say, this is not just. A true revolution of values will lay hands on the world order and say of war,this way of settling differences is not just. This business of burning human being with napalm, of filling our nation’s home with orphans and widows, of injecting poisonous drugs of hate into the veins of peoples normal humane, of sending men home from dark and bloodied battlefields physically handicapped and psychologicallyderanged cannot be reconciled with wisdom, justice and love. A nation that continues year after year, to spendmore money on military defense then on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual death. So what we must all see is that these are revolutionary times All over the globe, men are revoltingagainst old systems of exploitation and out of the wombs of a frail world new systems of justice and equality are being born. The shirtless and barefoot of the Earth are rising up as never before. The people who sat in darknesshave seen a great light. We in the west must support these revolutions, it is a sad fact that because of comfort,complacency, a morbid fear of Communism and our proneness to adjust to injustice, the Western nations thatinitiated so much of the revolutionary spirit of the modern world have now become the arch anti-revolutionaries. This has driven many to feel that only Marxism has the revolutionary spirit and in a sense,Communism is a judgment of our failure to make democracy real and to follow through on the revolutions thatwe initiated. Our only hope today lies in our ability to recapture the revolutionary spirit and go out into asometimes hostile world, declaring eternal opposition to poverty, racism and militarism. With this powerful commitment, we shall boldly challenge the status quo and unjust [morals?] and thereby speed the day when every valley shall be exalted and every mountain and hill shall be made low and the crooked places shall bemade straight and the rough places plain.May I say in conclusion that there is a need now, more than ever before, for men and women in our nation to be creatively maladjusted.  Mr. Davis said, and I say to you that I choose to be among the maladjusted,as my good friend Bill Coughlin said there are those who have criticized me and many of you for taking a standagainst the War in Vietnam and for seeking to say to the nation that the issues of Civil Rights cannot beseparated from the issues of peace.I want to say to you tonight that I intend to keep these issues mixed because they are mixed. Somewherewe must see that justice is indivisible, injustice anywhere is a threat to justice everywhere and I have fought tolong and to hard against segregated public accommodations to end up at this point in my life, segregating mymoral concerns. So let us stand in this convention knowing that on some positions; cowardice asks the questions, is itsafe; expediency asks the question, is it politic; vanity asks the question, is it popular, but conscious asks thequestion, is it right. And on some positions, it is necessary for the moral individual to take a stand that is neither safe, nor politic nor popular; but he must do it because it is right. And we say to our nation tonight, we say toour Government, we even say to our FBI, we will not be harassed, we will not make a butchery of our conscious, we will not be intimidated and we will be heard.

In 1967, MLK spoke of “the giant triplets of racism, economic exploitation, and militarism.” 52 years later, every day feels like Groundhog Day when it comes to injustice. To talk about the progress, or lack thereof, we're joined by Fair and Just fellow at Brooklyn Community Foundation, Heather McGhee. Then, to talk about the case that led to the complicated copyright conundrum that makes it very challenging to use any of MLK's speeches, we're joined on the phone by author and historian David J.

They’re three evils that destroying our world. Religion is the number one problem in our world. It’s divided us socially and politically. It have very profound effects on us on spiritual level, mental and physical. That’s why God never give us religions. He knew that it will divide us throughout the world. The second evils is Racism. Racism is systematics and group economists. The elite have used this methods to divided us throughout the world. It’s damaged the very core of our humanity . It’s has a very strong affect on people of colours . They have been using this method for the past 500 years. Lastly politics is the third evils. The elite have also used this method to control our minds . Throughout the century it’s have divided us as society. This social engineering have destroyed us across line of policies. Those policies usually favour the elite not the public. Consequently those have destroyed our way of thinking and daily life. It’s not coincidence that’s most of this world are --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app Support this podcast: https://anchor.fm/johnrosemberg/support

Hope you all had a great MLK Day! M2M is back with a vengeance. We slam Joe Biden's lack of Empathy for Millennials. We take a hard look at Oprah's chances to become the next president and why she shouldn't try... Best of all, we're breaking down one of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.'s most radical speeches: 'The Three Evils of Society'. An awesome speech given late in his career at the National Conference for New Politics on Aug. 31, 1967. It's a moving and prophetic speech. Enjoy!

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr - pastor, theologian, activist, and worker for God's Justice deserves more attention in our Churches. As a follower of Jesus called to attack the structural injustices of our world, he has much to teach us about living the faith. This sermon relies on the Good Samaritan story -- an important story to MLK and also on the speech he gave 8/31/67 on the "Three Evils of Society."

After the rebellion's wife ex machina victory against Ryan's forces, the supreme tri-mage is taken into custody. Jesse decides that he shall not be executed on the spot, but instead tried, by undefined space laws, so that they can prove once and for all that he is evil, and also not a god. It's worth the wait, it's all you could ever want: today begins the trial of Wilhelm Ryan.
