    Since 1983, when a day honoring slain civil rights leader Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was made a national holiday, this day has been an occasion for cringeworthy editorials from the Left.

    They criticize America, Trump, and of course conservatives, for the alleged continued oppression of black citizens and hold up an unrealistic racial utopia as the national goal.

    This ensures the goal will never be met and thus their main goal of further whiny editorials is achieved.

    And while a day to honor Dr. King is both honorable and beautiful, it is somewhat ironic that a day honoring a man who preached racial harmony, who said in his most famous speech that he "dreamed of a day when people would be judged on their character, not the color of their skin," is used as a day to focus on

    Today we can see that malevolence in the racism of AOC and her "Squad", who make sure to fan the fires of racial enmity to advance their own socialistic goals.

    They and the Klu Klux Klan, two sides of the same coin, both national socialists.

    But blacks are waking up, as the president's rising poll numbers in the black community showcase.

    If the Dem stranglehold on their support can be broken, then one day Dr. King's dream for all Americans will be that much closer to becoming a reality.
