Get their check, meaning the same deal others got. Grants, loans etc. one set of rules for all people

This was toward his end. When he finally realized passive resistance doesn't work. When the NAACP distanced themselves from him because he dissed them about fighting to take pictures and pens in the Whitehouse. Sad ending. Agreed with brother Malcom in the end.

As soon as he changed his stance the bullets found him.

A lot of Black folks need to hear this too. Too often some of us minimize, marginalize, or outright neglect the last five years of MLK’s life and it plays into just what you are talking about.

ALL black people should get a reparations check for $3,000 every month just like a stimulus check. I don't know about you but my momma worked as a janitor and made $7.25/hr so hell yeah she deserves a reparations check every month # All black people deserve them
