Trump's inauguration on MLK Day symbolizes a chilling threat to King's legacy, as his election undermines the progress toward a multiracial democracy and elevates a racist agenda.
King's legacy has been divided between the 'I Have a Dream' ideal and the radical 1968 King—an anti-poverty, antiwar democratic socialist whose vision goes unrecognized in mainstream celebrations.
Project 2025 outlines a cruel agenda that targets vulnerable populations, prioritizing tax cuts over essential services, leading to deeper inequalities in health care and social support.
As Trump's administration promises massive cuts to federal budgets, the most disadvantaged—especially Black communities—will bear the worst consequences, marking a regression from civil rights advancements.
