Seen during @Cbsnews Sunday Morning segment on the #FreedomMarch 60th anniversary, #MLKjr speaking in #Memphis #Tennessee days before his assassination: “All we’re asking of America 🇺🇸 is to be #true to what you’re saying on paper.”

Here it is, directly explained: "#Socialism" is and always has been a #dogwhistle.

"Since Reconstruction, reactionary racists had maintained that Black voters would elect lawmakers who would give them benefits that could only be paid for through tax levies on those with property, which generally meant white men. Black voting, they insisted, would lead to a redistribution of wealth and thus was essentially socialism." #votingrightsact #freedommarch #uspolitics
