Martin Luther King Junior's IQ

Answer 1

Achieving affirmative action was a great accomplishment for the first time in history.

It began the process of making sure that if a city is 50% black for example, the number of people in every job or profession should reflect that same percentage.

Likewise, If White people and Asian people only MAKE UP 25% and 5% of people in a city, they should only make up 25% and 5% of people in each profession respectively.

That would be evidence of a non racist society.

that was his goal.

Martian Luther King Jr. must have had a genius IQ to accomplish as much as he did.

He also earned a PHd in Theology from Boston University.

His IQ was probably somewhere between 140 and 180, maybe higher in my opinion.

We Still have far to go to realize Dr. King's dream, because of continued Racism against African Americans as evidenced by failing to meet proportional representation in most jobs in most areas.

In addition to the above comments: Martin Luther King Jr. was without argument one of the greatest spiritual and moral leaders in human history. But if you are looking for examples of his intellectual power, read "Letter from a Birmingham Jail". In it he demonstrates not only what a brilliant strategist he was in orchestrating civil rights actions, but how broad and deep his knowledge ran. He references not only biblical scripture, but western philosophers from Socrates to St. Thomas Aquinas to Martin Buber. I think he was one of the great thinkers of our time. I'm not an expert on IQ's but he was clearly a genius.
