In general other civil rights leaders suppressed and attacked Rustin for his homosexuality.
    The other part of this story frequent on the internet is that Barard Rustin was also MLKjr's lover, which is just one of the lies constructed all stemming from the same place.

    Yes it always amazes me how people think the solution to racism is to demand too talk more about race...

    He was a bigot. Just like everyone that's ever lived is a bigot. Bigot just means to be intolerant of different opinions. Are you saying that he tolerated racist's opinions?

    Always good to see that ideological stupidity is nothing new.

    I'm guessing it wasn't clear I only meant to say Mr Rustin was a homosexual?

    That lie was actually one of the reasons MLK turned his back on Rustin (that they were having some love affair), unfortunately also pushed by other blacks at the time.

    Critical thinking is good, but you can also overthink these issues. Somewhere in their education their teachers probably missed the chance to teach them that you can also overdo it.

    Well then... The 2010s will be forever known as the decade when universities and colleges became the breeding ground of absolute stupidity.

    You can't really change someone else's statement. Once you change it it is no longer their statement.
