Annual 2020 Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. Day History Quiz

Annual 2020 Reverend Doctor Martin Luther King, Jr. Day History Quiz

[N.S.: Yeah, yeah. I know that MLK Day has passed, but the celebration goes on for almost two months every year, actually more than that. It starts in early January, and runs through MLK Months I and II, and even pops up later in the year.

This anonymously published quiz is remarkably good. Numerous viral essays and articles have gotten around for years, and they tend to be quite good, though lefties lie about them.

Two notes: First, I disagree with the characterization that “King spen[t] his last morning on earth physically beating a woman.”

Sam Francis popularized that interpretation. Now Francis has been the most brilliant American political thinker of the past 40-odd years, but he did not understand man-woman stuff. King had screwed two different black women during the night, while leaving his favorite (black) mistress of thousands hanging. When she finally found him in the morning, she was understandably angry at him, and wouldn’t let him be. Finally, at the end fo his patience, he shoved her across the bed.

That’s not a beating, in any sense. And then you have to put it in the context of a man getting a hard time from the favorite of all his thousands of mistresses….

Re point 24, the tape that the FBI sent King, but which his wife listened to, I believe that was the tape of the hotel room rape King committed. (Although King did not penetrate the victim, the rape was committed under his direction, and he did nothing to stop it, making him a rapist, too.)

I’ll bet the essay was written by someone I know, since I know everyone who has the knowledge and the will to write such an essay. The suspect list is pretty short.]


Due to discrimination and persistent anti-Black bias, too many Americans don’t know enough about this great man. Try these quiz questions and you can see how little the schools, news media, and establishment have told you about the only American with his own holiday.

1) Name the judge who has sealed King's FBI surveillance file until the year 2027.

A) The Honorable John Lewis Smith Jr.

2) According to whose 1989 biography did King spend his last night on earth in an adulterous liaison after delivering his "Mountaintop" speech in Memphis?

William Raspberry, black syndicated journalist, called it "the betrayal of a trusting friend.”

16) Who edited King’s book Stride Toward Freedom?

A) Communist Stanley Levison. He often was a ghostwriter for King. Although Jewish and Communist (active at least up to 1957), he was a key member of the Southern CHRISTIAN Leadership Conference (SCLC), where disbelief in Christ was no impediment.



18) What student of the Gospel wrote the following concerning the physical resurrection of Christ from the dead? "From a literary, historical, and philosophical point of view this doctrine raises many questions. In fact, the external evidence for the authenticity of this doctrine is found wanting."

A) Bryant Gumbel.

23) Who said:

“Mr. Abernathy and King were many things to each other - colleagues in the black church, cellmates, strategists, co-conspirators for justice - but at the personal level, they were best friends. But in friendships in which one person greatly outshines the other, a curious mixture of love, envy and competition can sometimes lead to a lingering, often unspoken resentment. Mr. Abernathy's reasons for providing a detailed description of his friend's last evening and early morning - during which King had sexual encounters with two women and a confrontation with a third close woman companion - can be known only to him. It is sadly ironic that the disclosures will almost surely do more damage to Mr. Abernathy himself than to the reputation of King.”

A) Henry Hampton, producer of the PBS documentary “Eyes on the Prize,” in a review in The New York Times.


24) The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) sent King a letter which apparently also included a tape of one of his sexual escapades. Here is an excerpt:

“Listen to yourself you filthy, abnormal animal. You are on the record. You have been on the record — all your adulterous acts, your sexual orgies extending far into the past. This one is but a tiny sample. You will understand this. Yes, from your various evil playmates on the east coast to [redacted] and others on the west coast and outside the country you are on the record. King, you are done.”

The corporate media states that the letter was intended to make King commit suicide. What was the information which could have caused him to commit suicide?

A) Guess we will have to wait until the complete FBI files are released in 2027 - if ever.

25) Have these issues troubled the establishment King worshipers?

A) What do you think? Why?

B) Scoring:

No questions correct means you are exactly the kind of citizen your masters desire.

1 - 5 questions correct means you could be dangerous.

6 - 10 questions correct means you need electro-convulsive therapy.

11 - 15 questions correct means you are a hater.

16 or more questions correct means you are a terrorist. Turn yourself in now for re-education and your life may be spared.

Happy Nobel Peace Prize Laureate

I had BBQ’d ribs today to celebrate, avoided my local gym (black kids out of school—too much hassle) and watched Lesta point out another blackface “outrage” on NNN.

Quite a day.

I perused Breitbart and saw all the craziness being exhibited about the MAGA [Covington] kids. Some of the highlights: Kathy Griffin went nuts, Alyssa Milano went nuts (“the MAGA hat is the new white hood.”) Hakeem Jeffries called Trump “a Grand Wizard,” Sharpton complained that Trump only spent two minutes at the MLK statue (“an insult”), Tim Kaine and Joe Biden REMAINED nuts (“the shutdown is the result of hatred”), Debra Messing called the Covington kids, “disrespecting a**holes.”

I can’t believe what’s happening. Why have whites collectively flipped their lids in large numbers? The Covington kids give some hope for sane thinking—the rest of it makes me think a Civil War is just around the corner.

What country is this?

(BTW, Trump sided with the kids).

As with most (99%) of what blacks say, you find that MLK is a lie as well. Deception is their game. How else could they have POSSIBLY gotten the honor of a Federal Holiday named for him, without a rewrite of what MLK was really like.

Trump spent two minutes commemorating—two minutes too long—and wasted.

I find myself fascinated with the way the MAGA hat kids story is still unfolding. Today the angle on AOL, in an article reposted from Huffington, is to declare that a “new” video that has surfaced “complicates” the story.

https://www.huffingtonpost.com/entry/native-american-make-america-great-again-student_us_5c455270e4b0bfa693c4d1e1

Gotta love the damage control wording that steers attention away from the knee-jerk initial reporting. First off, the video is not “new,” multiple videos were shot at the same time and uploaded to Youtube and other websites almost immediately. Using the word “new” implies they have information they didn’t previously have but the video they cut and pasted from is available online and clearly shows much more than the bits they broadcast initially. It’s possible the people that shot that video sent selected excerpts to reporters so they didn’t have the full video right away but you’d think a legit news outlet would demand to see the entire video before broadcasting it.

If the media was being honest they’d say the full video “contradicts” the early reports rather than it “complicates” the story.

Still waiting for a headline story somewhere that directs attention to the true villains: The racist black Israelites. While they are getting mention in the body of the articles, they are not being focused on the way the boys still are. One has to point out: If white “preachers” hurled the kind of racist abuse toward black people on the street or anywhere it would be a media firestorm and every hypocritical virtue-signaling politician or celeb would pile on.

N.S.: Reminder to self: Must devote a blog item to how “complicates/complicated” is a racist, leftwing code phrase for something being exposed as a lie/hoax/whatever.

Those professors that awarded King his Ph.D. said even if they had KNOWN King had faked his thesis, he still would have gotten the Ph.D. How can that be?!

N.S.: At least one prof who sat on the doctoral committee that awarded Jack Stewart Boozer his doctorate three years earlier sat on the committee that gifted King his doctorate.

(Ted Pappas named the committee members. There were so few dissertations—almost certainly only those two—were on that topic in three years’ time that it would have been impossible, barring senility, or a traumatic brain injury, for at least one of the professors to make the connection. I searched my library today for Pappas' book, but couldn't find it.)

Now that’s a great quiz there! I've been researching the “Saint Who Ain’t,” and I got about half the answers right.
