Hating War In Vietnam In

If You Read Martin Luther King Speeches And Sermons In The Last Two Years Of His Life - You Might Want To - –when I Read These To My Students, They Think It's Malcom X Because It's So Radical. And If You Read Nothing Else - If Your Viewers Read Nothing Else - Then The April 4, 1967, Speech At Riverside Church Called "beyond Vietnam," That's Where He Says The Greatest Purveyor Of Violence On Earth Is My Country. And He Connects The Triplets Of Evil, Racism, Militarism, And Materialism, And That Connection Makes Him A Radical.

I Was Arrested 1965. I Had Come Back From The Merchant Marines, Got Into Conversations About The War. I Had Never Heard Of Vietnam Until I Was In The Merchant Marines In Constitution Square In Athens, And I Picked Up The New York Herald Or The International Herald Tribune And There Was My First Introduction Of The Word Vietnam.

Now In My View, If You Were To Line Up The Presidents In The Order Of Who Made The Greatest Accomplishments, You'd Put Lyndon Johnson In That Arena With Both Roosevelts Probably, And [abraham] Lincoln And So On. But The Idea That Lyndon Johnson Was Operating As A Free Agent And Coming Up With These Ideas On His Own Is Nonsense.

Everything Was Absolutely Ideal On The Day I Bombed The Pentagon.
