In an interview with CNN, former Arkansas Gov. and current presidential Republican contender Mike Huckabee shared his thoughts on how Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. would “be appalled by” the Black Lives Matter movement.
“It’s not that any life matters more than another,” he explained. “That’s the whole message I think that Dr. King tried to present, and I think he’d be appalled by the notion that we’re elevating some lives above others.”
Condemning the Black Lives Matter movement, Huckabee stated, “So I understand how people have great passions, but I also understand that the way you begin to resolve them is you do it by loving people and treating people with dignity and respect, and you don’t do it by magnifying the problems; you do it by really magnifying the solutions.”
