Get this – before the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the Voting Rights Act of 1965, Martin Luther King was a happy guy who had love in his heart for white America. After those civil rights watermark events, Dr. King became an angry Jeremiah – prophet from the Old Testament for the hyper-sensitive. Martin Luther King became an angry prophet:

“Before 1965, King was upbeat and bright, his belief in white America’s ability to change by moral suasion resilient and durable. That is the leader we have come to know during annual King commemorations. After 1965, King was darker and angrier; he grew more skeptical about the willingness of America to change without great social coercion.

King’s skepticism and anger were often muted when he spoke to white America, but they routinely resonated in black sanctuaries and meeting halls across the land. Nothing highlights that split—or white America’s ignorance of it and the prophetic black church King inspired—more than recalling King’s post-1965 odyssey, as he grappled bravely with poverty, war and entrenched racism. That is the King who emerges as we recall the meaning of his death. After the grand victories of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 and the 1965 Voting Rights Act, King turned his attention to poverty, economic injustice and class inequality. King argued that those “legislative and judicial victories did very little to improve” Northern ghettos or to “penetrate the lower depths of Negro deprivation.” In a frank assessment of the civil rights movement, King said the changes that came about from 1955 to 1965 “were at best surface changes” that were “limited mainly to the Negro middle class.” In seeking to end black poverty, King told his staff in 1966 that blacks “are now making demands that will cost the nation something. ... You’re really tampering and getting on dangerous ground because you are messing with folk then.”

This historical pettifogery by Dyson, who was at DePaul University and was a largely ignored columnist for the Chicago Sun Times – a prophet is never esteemed in his own home, is pure race-baiting gold! Expect Dyson to all over Cable and Bill Maher is cutting him a check for his HBO – Hate America Festival of Stars.

Well Michael Eric Dyson is a huge part of the race cottage industry in America. The Captains of that industry, Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpton, and Michael Eric Dyson are wealthy men today, thanks to their use of Dr. Martin Luther King. Their Color Balkanized America, where Victimization and Federal payouts to victims is the only answer to every thing, is a political and economic construct of the thoughtless and the comfortable. Where a discussion on race means that black America can never ever find peace and happiness in a land that will never ever understand anything about any black person ever and white people nod with somber conviction. Sorry.

Following on the heels of Barak Obama’s bat-guano crazy uncle, Jeremiah Wright, Dyson wants every white American to know that the black pulpit is the only place where black men and women can freely express themselves. Certainly not on the streets, or privacy of their homes, or on Roland S. Martin’s WVON race flagellation, on Black Entertainment Network, or guest shout-out spots on MSNBC, CNN,FOX, NPR, Public Television? Hate is hate. Hate means that white America is intrinsically evil ( Black Liberation Theology) and the game is fixed.

Obama wants to unite America. Michael Eric Dyson is helping do just that. The problem is that voters, black and white, will vote for John McCain. Michael Eric Dyson – John McCain owes you a great debt! Keep your insights and divisive ( I love how the Cable Mopes at MSNBC all give that word the Faux Limey Pronunciation, nowadays) thoughts in print and on the airwaves.

Now let’s sum up, Michael Eric Dyson – Martin Luther Kings was bitter, race-baiting hate whitey prophet after Civil Rights and Voting Rights Acts were passed by America. Then – after Civil Rights – America became a divided nation.

Well Done Dyson!
