In the first half of today’s episode, we discuss the intentional whitewashing of the politics and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King by the Raegan administration to gain a broader appeal to middle America. We also discuss how Dr. King’s image is used and his words are cherry-picked by far-right conservatives to provide a veneer of decency where there often is deep-seated bigotry, fear, and division.<a href="https://www.patreon.com/civiccipher?utm_source=search" rel="payment">Support the show: https://www.patreon.com/civiccipher?utm_source=search</a>See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
