First of all, without getting into the conspiratorial talk about them.....there was and is too much confusion about both HIV and AIDS. Most people think they are synonymous when they are actually 2 separate conditions that often overlap. AIDS (Acquire Immune Deficiency Syndrome) is a multi-symptom illness which basically means your immune system no longer works effectively so you end up with a bunch of diseases you wouldn't ordinarily get if it were working properly. Any major long term illness can give you AIDS because it wears down on your immune system. Malnutrition can give you AIDS because you need nutrients for your immune system to work effectively. This is one of the reasons you hear about millions of Africans having AIDS but most of them not dying of it. Because they are being deceptive about what TYPE of "AIDS" they have. HIV (Human Immuno-deficiency Virus) is a virus. It's a virus that is meant to destroy the immune system and that's what it does when it's left unchecked. Not everyone with the HIV virus actually reaches the point where it destroys their immune system or causes AIDS in them. Like Covid and other virus disorders, sometimes the virus just goes away on it's own or stays relatively stable in the body. Understanding nature of these two entities is key to our people properly treating them and protecting themselves from them.

I remember when AIDS burst on the scene about 45 years ago. Everybody was shook and paused like a turntable until they made it seem like AIDS was a disease mainly targeting homosexuals and drug addicts sharing needles. Upon hearing that AIDS were mainly those two groups of people, the turntable resumed spinning and people started dancing, er, f8cking again. Millions of people have been born, lived and died since 1981. Billions of s8xual acts have occurred and continue over 45 years and counting. Whatever AIDS outbreak is going around on down in South Carolina will not become a pandemic. Nowadays, there are medications that prevent HIV infection and keep it from becoming full blown AIDS. Whoever is walking around with AIDS in 2026 must have just awakened from a cryogenic state or been extremely lazy in using protection.

Nowhere have I written that Dr. MLK Jr. was Superman. Of course, he was the spokesman for a movement. Because Dr. MLK Jr. was not a Supreme Being, there's nothing he could have done about those realities. Again, in hindsight it's easy to claim Dr. MLK Jr.'s efforts "proved failures". Civil Rights and affirmative action doesn't happen without his influence and effort. This thread is about Dr. MLK Jr. Dr. MLK Jr.'s impact must have been significant from the number of schools, streets and other institutions named after him. The words of Dr. MLK Jr. are often quoted by politicians, religious leaders and academics. There's a monument and statue of him in Washington DC. As a proud FBA/AfroAmerican Black man, there's nothing anyone can say or do that will ever make me question or minimize the impact Dr. MLK Jr. had on ALL Black people up to present and future. While Dr. MLK Jr. chose non-violence as a tactic, I believe FBA/AfroAmericans should defend his legacy by any means necessary.

@ProfD Well, first MLK jr alone didn't do anything. The idoltry to him I am 100% certain he would oppose cause MLK jr wasn't the leader of the anti jim crow movement, he was a leader. HE was part of a group of Black people doing many things, often in concert to help the larger village. So no matter what one black person is doing, if they are not part of a group of people doing similar it will come to nothing. where are the groups of Black people doing something together? Cause no one was a superman during the 1960s for black people. I don't think MLK jr would praise his activities or status so greatly. And not from modesty but honesty. How many black children have been killed by whites since MLK jr died? I count many. How many black peple have been assaulted by whites from no provocation of their own, being nonviolent, since MLK jr died? You speak of what MLK jr did and yet what he did wasn't enough to stop the millions of assaults on black people from his death to now in the usa by whites. Mae Louise Walls Miller was freed side her blood relatives from enslavement pre jim crow style in 1963. Malcolm was murdered 1965. MLK jr was murdered 1968. So Both men and many other black leaders died less than five years from a known case of black enslavement to a white in the usa... MLK jr was a great leader but the environment for the greater black people proved failures on the parts of those before him like boooker t washington or web dubois and the environment after mlk jr proved the failures on the part of MLK jr and his peers like malcolm. well so could MAlcolm, so could medgar evers... the list is long. Your speaking of one man when a large group of black people in the time MLK jr lived warranted as much or more than hime, and had as much or greater opportunity for personal financial betterment.
