    This photo was posted by @Newsweek as a celebration of King’s death. They posted the corpse of the slain civil rights leader in what appears to be jubilant commemoration of his murder. Sobering reality of what we’re up against in 2018. pic.twitter.com/69Hi9uH53O

        Maybe I'm missing something, but what is the reference to "my old friend Martin". that sounded almost as, if not more, tone deaf than the photo. And do they not have editors? who say "Yep, let's run with this".

        My bad. Here are the exact details of the person who wrote it... https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abraham,_Martin_and_John … It was covered by Gaye though.

        Listening to it right now. In the hands of Gaye, it's an insanely good song. But tied to such a tone deaf tweet.......sighs
