For whatever his roots were Dr.King evolved like Malcolm did into a revolutionary who attacked both reactionary conservatism and liberalism in his writing and speeches.
King was a radical and a man of staunch philosophical principle who was actually unpopular at the time of his death because of that fact.
American conservatives have hollowed the man out and American liberals have betrayed his struggle.
