Saturday, April 5, 2008 at 2:55 PM Did he [Marting Luther King, Jr.] spend donated money on prostitutes? The most sordid charges about MLK's sex life, this one included, come from the FBI and can't necessarily be trusted. But there's no doubt about what one biographer calls King's "compulsive sexual athleticism." King's attitude toward women was chauvinist and often exploitative. In his 1989 autobiography, And the Walls Came Tumbling Down, King's close friend and fellow civil rights leader Ralph Abernathy writes that on the night before he died, King gave a rousing speech, had dinner with a woman afterward and remained with her till 1 AM, then came back to his motel to spend the night with a second woman. In the early morning hours a third woman came looking for King and became angry when she found the bed in the room he shared with Abernathy unoccupied. When King reappeared, he argued with woman #3 and wound up knocking her across the bed. In his 1991 memoir, Breaking Barriers, journalist Carl Rowan writes that in 1964 congressman John Rooney told him that he and his congressional committee had heard J. Edgar Hoover play an audiotape of an apparent orgy held in King's Washington hotel suite. Over the sounds of a couple having intercourse in the background, according to Rooney, King could be heard saying to a man identified as Abernathy, "Come on over here, you big black motherfucker, and let me suck your dick." Horrors, King was gay! (Rowan thinks this was just ribald repartee.) In his account of the same episode, civil rights historian Taylor Branch attributes a couple more quotes to King: "I'm fucking for God!" and "I'm not a Negro tonight!" The FBI anonymously sent King (or, according to some accounts, King's wife, Coretta) a tape of compromising material recorded in his hotel rooms. The tape was either accompanied or followed up by a note suggesting that King should commit suicide if he wished to avoid exposure.

Saturday, April 5, 2008 at 10:24 PM I've always loved MLK. He was a true civil rights leader and I'm sure he's rolling in his grave with the likes of Al Sharpton and Jesse Jackson. I really hate those two. Anyway, if MLK fucked a few skanks in his day, I don't really care. I'm pretty sure he judged those skanks on their character and not on the color of their skin... —acm323 |

Saturday, April 5, 2008 at 10:48 PM Jesse was in MLK's inner circle so I doubt he's rolling over in his grave. Both of them were/are flawed guys who've done some great work as well. —bguirk |

Saturday, April 5, 2008 at 11:18 PM Jesse Jackson shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence as MLK. Name one thing that Jesse has done that comes even close to what MLK did and the legacy of what he left behind. Jesse's an oppurtunistic, hypocritical, self-serving little whore. —acm323 |
