When and why did Dr. King's more radical views disappear from the public conception?

by pmoneydubs

Correct me if I'm wrong, but Dr. King's legacy seems to have been reduced to the single line "I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character." How did this happen?

It might be helpful if you explain what you mean by MLK s radical views. Which positions are you talking about specifically?
