MLK'S Untold Legacy:
A Critique of Capitalism

In January of 2013 SoapBox partnered with DePaul University student organizations to put on an event honoring the life of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.  Unlike most Dr. King events across the nation, our discussion-based forum focused on the legacy of Dr. King that is seldom, if ever, spoken of in the mainstream American consciousness.   While we often celebrate Dr. King's work in racial desegregation and nonviolent protest, we shun his vehement anti-capitalist sentiments . Dr. King fought for the eradication of poverty, spoke out against vast economic disparities as well as the violent militarism of the Vietnam War and  general American jingoism. This event focused on the true politics of Dr. King that are often sidelined for the convenient, packaged, and "safe" version of Dr. King that is often bastardized for shameless promotions of...well...everything come January-February.
Partners: Anti-Capitalist Coalition & Black Student Union
