Belated Martin Luther King Day Post

Nothing to say I haven't said before. Except to underline the point, that Dr. King was in Memphis supporting a sanitation worker's strike for economic justice. Or, as the quoted material in the post says:
Little Dovie realised, as Martin Luther King did, that the struggle and the civil rights movement wasn't just about race, but rather a far bigger issue of understanding power and class distinction.Remember that every time a GOP Presidential candidate talks about the evils of "class warfare" or "the bitter politics of envy."
Dr. King was not envious.

Exacto.
You hit the nail on the head - but a bit beside the point, he was in Memphis, not Atlanta, in April '68.
