King was undeniably a great man for his Civil Rights work. That doesn't mean that we're bound to accept his every thought or belief. I can admire the man and laud his accomplishments without subscribing to his view of economics.
The trouble with the Left is that you keep insisting on these false choices: either accept everything that the Left claims about Dr. King, or admit you're a racist. Ridiculous.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
