Yes, we are all human! Nobody is perfect. If these tapes come out in 2027 they will not dampen MLK's legacy for civil rights in my eyes. On the accusation of King raping someone? FBI spies saying they could see his expressions or mannerism are impossible and were obviously pressured to get damning results for Hoover.

[Göteborg FF] The FBI begins spying on MLK on suspicion of communist activities and ends up spying on his sex life. It is the disease of the moral watchers. The documentary accurately narrates these espionage activities that move against the defense of human rights. Through well selected archival material, it is a necessary film to show the moral baseness of those who considered themselves protectors of moral integrity. It is the danger of a policy based on constant suspicion.
