Can’t Cancel Greatness!

Описание: MLK Day in Trump’s America: When the Dream Is Quoted but Justice Is Rolled Back.

Every January, the United States pauses—at least officially—to honor the life and legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. But in Trump’s America, the real question isn’t whether MLK Day exists on the calendar. It’s whether the values behind it are being upheld or quietly dismantled.

In this focused, conversational episode, MLK Day in Trump’s America, we examine the tension between public praise for Dr. King and the political realities unfolding around us. While King’s words are frequently quoted, his radical demands—for economic justice, voting rights, racial equity, and peace—are often ignored, softened, or weaponized.

We unpack President Trump’s 2026 MLK Day proclamation, the backlash surrounding its timing, and the broader context of policy rollbacks, symbolic gestures, and cultural contradictions. From the removal of MLK Day and Juneteenth as fee-free days at National Parks to the cancellation of long-standing community events, we ask: Is the holiday being honored—or hollowed out?

Most importantly, this episode challenges listeners to think beyond federal recognition. What does it mean to make MLK Day uncancelable—not by presidential approval, but by everyday action, organizing, and accountability? If the holiday disappeared tomorrow, what parts of the dream would we still be living?
