Perception Versus Reality, Starring the Miami Police
So... this happened : And while there's some acknowledgment of the obvious seemingly contradictory message of police giving recognition to the demographic they are known to shoot/beat/kill with little regard, the artist behind this is pushing nuanced understanding: Unlike the typical Miami police car, which is white and blue in color, this special edition is coated black with red, yellow and green stripes — colors commonly used to represent pan-African solidarity. The vehicle is also embellished with four raised fists, an outline of the African continent and the words "Miami Police Supports Black History Month."

Memo To Clubs: Please Stop Using MLK Like This
Being someone who gets various stories from various places at various times, I also get ads for certain events. The pic you see is for a club promoting what appears to be a MLK party.

I'm also sure that when the man was writing his "I Have a Dream" Speech he wasn't thinking that by the 21st century people would be using his image to promote booze-heavy parties. Now, I don't think the clubs should forgo reminding their customers that most of them will have Monday off. But if they want to link a deceased celebrity to the club life, they'd be better off using Notorious B.I.G. or Tupac.
