Inna lillahi wa inna ilahi raji’un

I think the best, absolute best tribute to the Rev. King that I have seen recently was in the movie Elizabethtown. If you’ve seen it, you know the scene I mean. It was only a minute long but it made me want to go on pilgrimage to Memphis.

MLK was quite “radical” too though wasn’t he? He seems to have been ‘cleaned up’ for the ‘mainstream’…

He was getting more and more radical toward the end of his brief life. Though Malcolm X is typically considered the more radical of the two. So yeah, we do clean him up a bit in America. It’s how we show our love in an image-obsessed age.
