The Corruption of Civil Rights

Civil Rights as a concept has been corrupted. Originally Civil Rights was about achieving "equality". Martin Luther King, in his "I Have a Dream Speech" proclaimed: "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character." (emphasis added).  Today, "equality" is not the objective anymore for achieving Civil Rights. Instead, the objective is now to use race (the color of their skin) under the concept of "equity". King would be very disappointed.

Biden through his inaugural address and his recent Executive Orders has essentially legitimized this race based "equity" approach and made it official government policy.
