In full disclosure this is a video edit of a larger speech. Also, there is a few minutes from a sermon by Dr King on the same topic, speaking out against the war in Vietnam. In total, the sermon and the speech total nearly an hour so obviously the 5 min clip is paired down (although much of the two talks mirror each other verbatim). Of note, the only parts that were removed were those that he specifically references Vietnam (i.e. the parts with details that would pertain only to that era). That being said, it is still eerie to see how his words could be given today. If you want to hear the full, unedited version simply search for "A Time to Break Silence" and/or "Beyond Vietnam" and you will be able to find the clips in their entirety. The best part is how he sites his love for the troops while voicing descent. God bless and hope you enjoy.

  • His words live on in Ron Paul!!!! Compare what they say and they laugh and joke about Ron Paul

  • @danlufan For war yes, the parts about legalizing private sector racism and ending all aide to the poor don't exactly sound like Dr King to me. But I do like Ron Paul, sad he has no real chance to break though the establishment.

  • We are all human, yet we're being forced to kill our own children. True humanity will come through, practice it daily with your fellow humans, be them poorer, less healthy or unintelligent. They are are still our brothers and sisters. Love everybody at all times. Peace to you all. Practice.

  • Cant stop listening to this 

  • @ianm12 ron paul would have opposed the jim crow laws which institutionalized racism.

    Ron Paul is the anti Racism candidate, he is against the racist drug war, he is for individual equal rights.

    Ron Paul understands economics, and he knows that any private company which didn't want to do business with black people would go out of business and couldn't sustain a business whilst excluding blacks/minorities, given the choice, any businessman would oppose jim crow like laws.
