Billy Rojas: The Politically Incorrect Martin Luther King



Our resident historian Billy Rojas just published a two-part series on the ideology, theology, and political orientation of Martin Luther King, Jr. In Billy's inimitable style, it combines exhaustive research with provocative perspectives that illuminate many things about King, Billy, and the Radical Centrist project.

A. The Politically Incorrect Martin Luther King, Part I
• Martin Luther King the Baptist Preacher
• Martin Luther King's Opposition to Homosexuality

B. The Politically Incorrect Martin Luther King, Conclusion
• The Strange Case of Bayard Rustin
• The Unknown Martin Luther King
• (or, Martin Luther King the Radical Centrist)

Perhaps the theme and purpose of the article can best be summarized in Billy's own words:

In any case, we need all of the good ideas that can come our way. Our task is to know everything possible about the human mind and human society, not only to understand things of the spirit. We also need to study the past since history is another word for memory, and the more we can remember the more we are prepared to fathom the realm of the future.
