There is so much that people don't know about Martin Luther King Jr. Rev Hosea Williams was Dr. King close friend and his lieutenant. In this video he said that Dr. King started his own newspaper, and he shows a copy of it. Edited by Minister Of Information, Apr 8 2013, 12:25 AM.

Dr. King had planned to build apartment buildings, look at what he said in this quote below. This quote is from his speech called Where Do We Go From Here. http://mlk-kpp01.stanford.edu/index.php/encyclopedia/documentsentry/where_do_we_go_from_here_delivered_at_the_11th_annual_sclc_convention SCLC has entered the field of housing. Under the leadership of attorney James Robinson, we have already contracted to build 152 units of low-income housing with apartments for the elderly on a choice downtown Atlanta site under the sponsorship of Ebenezer Baptist Church. This is the first project , this is the first project of a proposed southwide Housing Development Corporation which we hope to develop in conjunction with SCLC, and through this corporation we hope to build housing from Mississippi to North Carolina using Negro workmen, Negro architects, Negro attorneys, and Negro financial institutions throughout. And it is our feeling that in the next two or three years, we can build right here in the South forty million dollars worth of new housing for Negroes, and with millions and millions of dollars in income coming to the Negro community.

There are a lot of things that people don't know aboit Dr. King and that's why people need to research him. People just keep talking about his I Have a Dream speech over and over again, as if that was the only thing he ever did. Dr. King gave 1000's of speeches that most people have never heard. |

Dr. King understood the need to do something for yourself. |

Most people know very little about Dr. King. The only thing they probably know about Dr. King is what they learned in grade school. |
