uh...a sixteen letter word(based on the number of blanks you left there)? Perhaps, but which one? "ACANTHOPTERYGIAN"? "GASTROESOPHAGEAL"?

"NONVOLATILISABLE"? Those responses are no sillier than your question is passive-aggressive, presumptuous or absurd.

Why don't you just say what it is you disagree with in the article. assume you'd concede the point that white conservatives are not entitled to use MLK's words to imply that they are consistent with Dr, King's values but today's antiracist activists somehow aren't. White conservatives are the ones who invented the fictitious concept of "states' rights" to defend Jim Crow to the bitter end, after all, and are trying today to strip the country of every victory Dr. King lived and died for, by seeking to repeal the Voting Rights Act and therefore make racial equality impossible by making black voting as close to impossible, since no notion of equality can exist without the ability to vote being completely equal for all.
