: TalkLeftWill The ADL Issue A Statement On Glenn Beck's "I Have A Dream" Speech?
By Big Tent Democrat
Via Steven D. at Booman Tribune, is Glenn Beck giving a speech at the Lincoln Memorial on the anniversary of Martin Luther King's "I Have A Dream Speech" "sensitive" to the concerns of African Americans? Will Abe Foxman of the ADL think that Beck should not do this? I mean, people are upset:
[Glenn] Beck's "Restoring Honor" rally, with former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin among the scheduled speakers, will take place on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, 47 years to the day after Martin Luther King Jr. delivered his famous "I Have a Dream" speech there.
[. . .] Civil rights leaders have denounced Beck's plans, questioning his motives for choosing the date and place, which they said are historically symbolic of the country's civil rights movement.
Maybe Beck should move to a site a few blocks away. I mean, if he was interested in not offending people and creating unity. Will Foxman and the ADL be releasing a statement urging Beck to take into account the feelings of African Americans?
Speaking for me only
