As Americans observed Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday, retired Vanderbilt University professor and author Carol Swain expressed concern over the current state of U.S. race relations and civil rights.

In an interview with NTD News, Swain said that King’s approach and message on civil rights was “diametrically opposed” to the views and behaviors of modern-day civil rights activists.
