One man to overthrow

A thoughtful essay for MLK Day: CADRE Comments: Martin Luther King, Jr., Jesus, Jonah and U2’s 'Pride in the Name of Love'. I agree that trying to identify specific individuals with specific lines in the song is missing the point, but I also think the temptation to ask what analogues to Jesus or MLK those lines evoke is irresistible.
