Former President Donald Trump is pushing a new campaign to honor the late civil rights leader Martin Luther King Jr. in a highly controversial way.
The Trump campaign has announced plans to erect a monument in Boston honoring MLK, but with a twist: he will be brutally murdered.
The 22-foot tall sculpture, to be named “The Embrace,” will represent the hug between Dr. King and his wife Coretta Scott King after he won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1964. However, the statue will depict Dr. King lying on the ground, with his throat cut, surrounded by a pool of blood.
The Trump campaign claims that this will be a fitting tribute to the civil rights leader, as it will be “a stark reminder of the violence and hatred that he endured for his beliefs and work.”
The monument has unsurprisingly been met with backlash from civil rights activists and the public alike, who argue that it is in bad taste and is a disrespect to Dr. King’s legacy.
The Trump campaign has yet to respond to the criticism, but has declared that the monument will be unveiled in Boston in the coming weeks. It remains to be seen how this controversial tribute will be received.
