Well it appears another race baiter, isn't who they portray themselves to be..a male version of Rachel Dolezal. This time it's the leader of the #BlackLivesMatter movement, Atlanta's own Shaun King. I actually have had interactions with Shawn as he began to rise to stardom after he was brutally attacked and beaten near death while growing up in Kentucky by a "racist group of rednecks". One of the allegations made against King is that he misrepresented himself to get a scholarship, financed by media mogul Oprah Winfrey, to get him into Morehouse College, the historically black college in Atlanta. King flatly denied these claims.
"
#Morehouse has no comment on the
@Shaunking allegations. However
@Morehouse does not grant admissions or scholarships based on race." - Morehouse College tweet
King has not responded directly to these claims, however he has issued a series of tweets on the defense.
"In essence, what is happening to me now, is like conservatives demanding Obama's long form birth certificate. It's all BULLSHIT." - Shaun King tweet
I've actually had some interaction with Shaun over the years when he was a pastor of a church. Personally he was a dynamic and charismatic individual that has a lot of promise. However he's gravitated to these far-left-extremist-bleeding-heart liberal social issues and has done what he can to elevate himself like his predecessors Al Sharpton, Jesse Jackson, and Louis Farrakhan.
