    MLK Jr. is speaking about people who claim to be allies but insist on doing nothing and rebuking the Civil Rights movement at every turn.

        They do. I just see it used far too often as a condemnation of ‘moderates’ in general, when MLK Jr. had no problem with working with people who were far more moderate than him… as long as they were willing to go forward, and not backwards or remain in place.
