“The conflict between [Martin Luther King Jr. and Ella Baker] reveals more fundamental conflicts between black politcs and African American culture over the meanings of American democracy and the pathways toward social change…. Baker described [King] as a pampered member of Atlanta’s black elite… a member of a coddled ‘silver spoon brigade’... In Baker’s eyes, Kind did not identify closely enough with the people he sought to lead. HE did not situate himself among them but remained above them…. Baker and King… translated religious faith into their political identities in profoundly different ways. Above all, they defined the confluence of their roles as individuals and their roles as participants in a mass movement for social change quite distinctly. Baker was a militant egalitarian, and King was a sophisticated southern Baptist preacher.”
Barbara Ransby, Ella Baker and the Black Freedom Movement, 2003
“By 1965, King’s radical voice rang more clearly when he confessed that his dream had turned into a ‘nightmare.’ The dream shattered when whites murdered voting rights workers in Alabama, when police battled blacks in Los Angeles, when he met jobless and ‘hopeless’ blacks on desperate Chicago streets and when he saw hunger and poverty in rural Mississippi and Appalachia. But King picked up the shards of his shattered dreams and reassembled them into more radical visions of emancipation for all poor people…. Dreams of decent jobs, affordable integrated housing, and adequate family incomes remained central to King’s public ministry until his death.”
