Original Note:
It should be noted that the FBI does not honor the life or work of MLK, as they conducted a surveillance / harassment campaign on King, partly due to the fact that the director of the FBI at the time, Hoover, was a racist https://features.apmreports.org/arw/king/d1.html They also tried to blackmail him into suicide https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/FBI%E2%80%93King_letter
