	Dr. King’s Televised Challenge to Obama:
	Tavis Smiley's Anti-War MLK
	by BAR executive editor Glen Ford

"Who can doubt that Dr. King would be locked in confrontation with Obama, were 
he alive today?...

"We hear Dr. King’s indictment of the United States that has held true for 43 
years: that it is ‘the greatest purveyor of violence in the world today’...

"Only through a willful or imposed ignorance can one arrive at the conclusion 
that Martin Luther King and Barack Obama could be found on the same side of 
history...

"Tavis Smiley is clearly aware that his focus on King’s Riverside speech 
represents a challenge to Obama’s war policies..."
