THE BEAST AS SAINT: The Truth About "Martin Luther King, Jr."

by Kevin Alfred Strom

WHEN THE COMMUNISTS TOOK OVER a country, one of the first things that
they did was to confiscate all the privately-held weapons, to deny the
people the physical ability to resist tyranny. But even more insidious
than the theft of the people's weapons was the theft of their history.

Official Communist "historians" rewrote history to fit the current
party line. In many countries, revered national heroes were excised
from the history books, or their real deeds were distorted to fit
Communist ideology, and Communist killers and criminals were converted
into official "saints." Holidays were declared in honor of the beasts
who murdered countless nations.

Did you know that much the same process has occurred right here in
America?

Every January, the media go into a kind of almost spastic frenzy of
adulation for the so-called "Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr."
King has even had a national holiday declared in his honor, an honor
accorded to no other American, not Washington, not Jefferson, not
Lincoln. (Washington and Lincoln no longer have holidays -- they share
the generic-sounding "President's Day.") A liberal judge has sealed
the FBI files on King until the year 2027. What are they hiding? Let's
take a look at this modern-day plastic god.

Born in 1929, King was the son of a Black preacher known at the time
only as "Daddy King." "Daddy King" named his son Michael. In 1935,
"Daddy King" had an inspiration to name himself after the Protestant
reformer Martin Luther. He declared to his congregation that
henceforth they were to refer to him as "Martin Luther King" and to
his son as "Martin Luther King, Jr." None of this name changing was
ever legalized in court. "Daddy" King's son's real name is to 
this day Michael King.

King's Brazen Cheating.

We read in Michael Hoffman's "Holiday for a Cheater":

The first public sermon that King ever gave, in 1947 at the Ebenezer
Baptist Church, was plagiarized from a homily by Protestant clergyman
Harry Emerson Fosdick entitled "Life is What You Make It," according
to the testimony of King's best friend of that time, Reverend Larry H.

Williams. The first book that King wrote, "Stride Toward Freedom,
--was plagiarized from numerous sources, all unattributed, according
to documentation recently assembled by sympathetic King 
scholars Keith D. Miller, Ira G. Zepp, Jr., and David J. Garrow.
And no less an authoritative source than the four senior editors of
"The Papers of Martin Luther King, Jr.-- (an official publication of
the Martin Luther King Center for Nonviolent Social Change, Inc.,
whose staff includes King's widow Coretta), stated of King's writings
at both Boston University and Crozer Theological Seminary: "Judged
retroactively by the standards of academic scholarship, [his writings]
are tragically flawed by numerous instances of  plagiarism....
Appropriated passages are particularly evident in his writings in his
major field of graduate study, systematic theology." King's essay,
"The Place of Reason and Experience in Finding God," written at
Crozer, pirated passages from the work of theologian Edgar S.
Brightman, author of "The Finding of God--. Another of King's theses,
"Contemporary Continental Theology," written shortly after he entered
Boston University, was largely stolen from a book by Walter 
Marshall Horton. King's doctoral dissertation, "A Comparison of the
Conceptions of God in the Thinking of Paul Tillich and Harry Nelson
Wieman," for which he was awarded a PhD in theology, 
contains more than fifty complete sentences plagiarized from the PhD
dissertation of Dr. Jack Boozer, "The Place of Reason in Paul
Tillich's Concept of God." According to "The Martin Luther King
Papers", in King's dissertation "only 49 per cent of sentences in the
section on Tillich contain five or more words that were King's
own...."! In "The Journal of American History", June 1991, page 87,
David J. Garrow, a leftist academic  who is sympathetic to King, says
that King's wife, Coretta Scott King, who also served as his 
secretary, was an accomplice in his repeated cheating. Reading
Garrow's article, one is led to the inescapable conclusion that King
cheated because he had chosen for himself a political role 
in which a PhD would be useful, and, lacking the intellectual ability
to obtain the title fairly, went after it by any means necessary. Why,
then, one might ask, did the professors at Crozer 
Theological Seminary and Boston University grant him passing grades
and a PhD? Garrow states on page 89: "King's academic compositions,
especially at Boston University, were almost without 
exception little more than summary descriptions... and comparisons of
other's writings. Nonetheless, the papers almost always received
desirable letter grades, strongly suggesting that King's professors
did not expect more...." The editors of "The Martin Luther King Jr.
Papers" state that "...the failure of King's teachers to notice his
pattern of textual appropriation is somewhat remarkable...."

But researcher Michael Hoffman tells us "...actually the malfeasance
of the professors is not at all remarkable. King was politically
correct, he was Black, and he had ambitions. The leftist 
[professors were] happy to award a doctorate to such a candidate no
matter how much fraud was involved. Nor is it any wonder that it has
taken forty years for the truth about King's record 
of nearly constant intellectual piracy to be made public."

Supposed scholars, who in reality shared King's vision of a racially
mixed and Marxist America, purposely covered up his cheating for
decades. The cover-up still continues. From the "New York 
Times" of October 11, 1991, page 15, we learn that on October 10th of
that year, a committee of researchers at Boston University admitted
that, "There is no question but that Dr. King plagiarized in the
dissertation." However, despite its finding, the committee said that
"No thought should be given to the revocation of Dr. King's doctoral
degree," an action the panel said "would serve no purpose."

No purpose, indeed! Justice demands that, in light of his willful
fraud as a student, the "reverend" and the "doctor" should be removed
from King's name.

Communist Beliefs and Connections

Well friends, he is not a legitimate reverend, he is not a bona fide
PhD, and his name isn't really "Martin Luther King, Jr." What's left?
Just a sexual degenerate, an America-hating Communist, and a criminal
betrayer of even the interests of his own people.

On Labor Day, 1957, a special meeting was attended by Martin Luther
King and four others at a strange institution called the Highlander
Folk School in Monteagle, Tennessee. The Highlander Folk School was a
Communist front, having been founded by Myles Horton (Communist Party
organizer for Tennessee) and Don West (Communist Party organizer for
North Carolina). The leaders of this meeting with King were the
aforementioned Horton and West, along with Abner Berry and James 
Dumbrowski, all open and acknowledged members of the Communist Party,
USA. The agenda of the meeting was a plan to tour the Southern states
to initiate demonstrations and riots.

From 1955 to 1960, Martin Luther King's associate, advisor, and
personal secretary was one Bayard Rustin. In 1936 Rustin joined the
Young Communist League at New York City College. 
Convicted of draft-dodging, he went to prison for two years in 1944.
On January 23, 1953 the "Los Angeles Times" reported his conviction
and sentencing to jail for 60 days for lewd vagrancy and homosexual
perversion. Rustin attended the 16th Convention of the Communist
Party, USA in February, 1957. One month later, he and King founded the
Southern Christian  Leadership Conference, or SCLC for short. The
president of the SCLC was Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. The 
vice-president of the SCLC was the Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth, who
was also the president of an identified Communist front known as the
Southern Conference Educational Fund, an organization whose field
director, a Mr. Carl Braden, was simultaneously a national sponsor of
the Fair Play for Cuba Committee, of which you may have heard. The
program director of the SCLC was the Reverend Andrew Young, in more
recent years Jimmy Carter's ambassador to the UN and mayor of 
Atlanta. Young, by the way, was trained at the Highlander Folk School,
previously mentioned.

Soon after returning from a trip to Moscow in 1958, Rustin organized
the first of King's famous marches on Washington. The official organ
of the Communist Party, "The Worker,-- openly declared the march to be
a Communist project. Although he left King's employ as secretary in
1961, Rustin was called upon by King to be second in command of the
much larger march on Washington which took place on August 28, 1964.

Bayard Rustin's replacement in 1961 as secretary and advisor to King
was Jack O'Dell, also known as Hunter Pitts O'Dell. According to
official records, in 1962 Jack O'Dell was a member of the National
Committee of the Communist Party, USA. He had been listed as a
Communist Party member as early as 1956. O'Dell was also given the job
of acting executive director for SCLC activities for the entire
Southeast, according to the St. Louis "Globe-Democrat --of October 26,
1962. At that time, there were still some patriots in the press corps,
and word of O'Dell's party membership became known.

What did King do? Shortly after the negative news reports, King fired
O'Dell with much fanfare. And he then, without the fanfare,
"immediately hired him again-- as director of the New York 
office of the SCLC, as confirmed by the "Richmond News-Leader --of
September 27, 1963. In 1963 a Black man from Monroe, North Carolina
named Robert Williams made a trip to Peking,  China. Exactly 20 days
before King's 1964 march on Washington, Williams successfully urged
Mao Tse-Tung to speak out on behalf of King's movement. Mr. Williams
was also around this time maintaining his primary residence in Cuba,
from which he made regular broadcasts to the southern US, three times
a week, from high-power AM transmitters in Havana under the title
"Radio Free Dixie." In these broadcasts, he urged violent attacks by
Blacks against White Americans.

During this period, Williams wrote a book entitled "Negroes With
Guns." The writer of the foreword for this book? None other than
Martin Luther King, Jr.  It is also interesting to note that the
editors and publishers of this book were to a man all supporters of
the infamous Fair Play for Cuba Committee.

According to King's biographer and sympathizer David J. Garrow, "King
privately described himself as a Marxist." In his 1981 book, "The FBI
and Martin Luther King, Jr.", Garrow quotes King as saying in SCLC
staff meetings, "...we have moved into a new era, which must be an era

of revolution.... The whole structure of American life must be
changed.... We are engaged in the class struggle."

Jewish Communist Stanley Levison can best be described as King's
behind-the-scenes "handler." Levison, who had for years been in charge
of the secret funnelling of Soviet funds to the Communist Party, USA,
was King's mentor and was actually the brains behind many of King's
more successful ploys. It was Levison who edited King's book, "Stride
Toward Freedom." It was Levison who arranged for a publisher. Levison
even prepared King's income tax returns! It was Levison 
who really controlled the fund-raising and agitation activities of the
SCLC. Levison wrote many of King's speeches. King described Levison as
one of his "closest friends."

FBI: King Bought Sex With SCLC Money

The Federal Bureau of Investigation had for many years been aware of
Stanley Levison's Communist activities. It was Levison's close
association with King that brought about the initial FBI 
interest in King.Lest you be tempted to believe the controlled media's
lie about "racists" in the FBI being out to "get" King, you should be
aware that the man most responsible for the FBI's probe of King was 
Assistant Director William C. Sullivan. Sullivan describes himself as
a liberal, and says that initially "I was one hundred per cent for
King...because I saw him as an effective and badly needed leader for
the Black people in their desire for civil rights." The probe of King
not only confirmed their suspicions about King's Communist beliefs and
associations, but it also revealed King to be a despicable hypocrite,
an immoral degenerate, and a worthless charlatan.

According to Assistant Director Sullivan, who had direct access to the
surveillance files on King which are denied the American people, King
had embezzled or misapplied substantial amounts of money contributed
to the "civil rights" movement. King used SCLC funds to pay for
liquor, and numerous prostitutes both Black and White, who were
brought to his hotel rooms, often two at a time, for drunken sex
parties which sometimes lasted for several days. These types of 
activities were the norm for King's speaking and organizing tours.

In fact, an outfit called The National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis,
Tennessee, which is putting on display the two bedrooms from the
Lorraine Motel where King stayed the night before he was shot, has
declined to depict in any way the "occupants" --of those rooms. That
according to exhibit designer Gerard Eisterhold "would be "close to
blasphemy." The reason? Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. spent his last
night on Earth having sex with two women at the motel and 
physically beating and abusing a third.

Sullivan also stated that King had alienated the affections of
numerous married women. According to Sullivan, who in 30 years with
the Bureau had๏ฟฝseen everything there was to be seen of the 
seamy side of life, King was one of only seven people he had ever
encountered who was such a total degenerate.

Noting the violence that almost invariably attended King's supposedly
"non-violent" marches, Sullivan's probe revealed a very different King
from the carefully crafted public image. King welcomed members of many
different Black groups as members of his SCLC, many of them advocates 
and practitioners of violence. King's only admonition on the subject
was that they should embrace "tactical nonviolence."

Sullivan also relates an incident in which King met in a financial
conference with Communist Party representatives, not knowing that one
of the participants was an infiltrator actually working for the FBI.

J. Edgar Hoover personally saw to it that documented information on
King's Communist connections was provided to the President and to
Congress. And conclusive information from FBI files was also provided
to major newspapers and news wire services. But were the American
people informed of King's real nature? No, for even in the 1960s, the
fix was in"the controlled media and the bought politicians were bound
and determined to push their racial mixing program on America. 
King was their man and nothing was going to get in their way. With a
few minor exceptions, these facts have been kept from the American
people. The pro-King propaganda machine grinds on, and it is even
reported that a serious proposal has been made to add some of King's
writings as a new book in the Bible.

Ladies and gentlemen, the purpose of this radio program is far greater
than to prove to you the immorality and subversion of this man called
King. I want you to start to think for yourselves. I want you to
consider this: What are the forces and motivation behind the
controlled media's active promotion of King? What does it tell you
about our politicians when you see them, almost without exception,
falling all over themselves to honor King as a national hero? What
does it tell you about our society when any public criticism of this
moral leper and Communist functionary is considered grounds for
dismissal? What does it tell you about the controlled media when you
see how they have successfully suppressed the truth and held out a
picture of King that can only be described as a colossal lie? You need
to think, my fellow Americans. You desperately need to wake up.
