  1. Dr. Petit bourgeoisie Jared Ball is on record saying Danny Glover is a functionary of the Democratic Party. Dr. Ball states that no Afrikan can be radical, famous & wealthy simultaneously. Danny Glover met those standards. Fortunately for us Jared ain’t preaching the gospel.

  2. Good for Danny but MLK stood NOT only for blacks he stood for ALL and Why are you celebrating or gathering for the date of an assassination? You should be gathering for his birth!

  3. Glover brings the real MLK back to us. King struggled between the message of Christian love and forgiveness and materialist analysis of economics. Kings 1968 "Beyond Vietnam" speech a year before his death was his public acknowledgement that "The US is the greatest purveyor of violence on earth" and "We need a radical redistribution of wealth and power".
    Love and forgiveness was a very popular and useful way to organize in the Jim Crow South but that day when he gave the Beyond Vietnam speech he was asking his flock to accept a devastating critique of US economics. He knew that by calling on all people white and black to join together in the Poor People's March, his base of support would be, and indeed was shaken to its core. No longer would love and understanding alone be his message. He had become a US revolutionary and probably was shot for that reason.

  4. What an extraordinary speech, for his earnestness and his understanding of the whole framework of transformation through the ages.🙏

  5. “Agent” Glover loves Mel Gibson and bohemian grove. He should not be trusted. Pass the mic to a real revolutionary not this tool

  6. MLK was wicked as hell…… joining us with them devil's…… He was false prophet…. Jeremiah 23:25. Holy… means to be set apart… We are the people of the Bible ( israel )… we were never supposed to be making babies with these heathens…

  7. I'm gettin' too old for this shit, Riggs…thank god Danny Glover ain't! "GOD" BLESS EDDIE CONWAY AND DANNY GLOVER!!!–i'd give my eye teeth to see that scumbag ratbastard Bloomberg on the same stage with these TWO TRULY GREAT MEN, GOOD GUYS.

  9. Very proud of you Mr. Glover: Everyone knows of your acting chops. Just finding out here of your historical activism. Thank you for your contributions on every level!

  10. Hearing Glover go on and on about race and sharing heritage and hair and skin and what not leaves me thinking he completely missed MLK's point, it's not about race, it's about the person.

    15:50 Mandela wasn't locked up because he wanted to end segregation, he was locked up because he bombed public spaces and left women and children dead. The path to hell is pathed with good intentions, but what kind of intentions lead you to killing innocents? Ends justify the means? No. The means justify the end.

  11. A WORLD TO WIN !!! DOWN WITH INTERNATIONAL FASCISM!!! DOWN WITH CORPORATE IMPERIALISM!!! BOYCOTT ISRAEL NARCO-GENOCIDE STATE!!! ORGANIZA & REBEL!!! LONG LIVE THE PEOPLE'S STRUGGLE!!! REVOLUTION NOW!!!

  12. I wonder why no one is talking about the assassination on Malcolm X…. Have we come so far that we have forgotten what he has done for us?

    If you're not careful, the newspapers will have you hating the people who are being oppressed, and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.—-Malcolm X
