Re: MLK bio on Wikipedia attacked by racist & right-wing vandals

Martin Luther King, Jr.'s biographical entry on the free online publicly-edited encyclopedia Wikipedia has been repeatedly vandalized today, an ongoing attack, forcing volunteer editors to monitor the page constantly throughout this day of remembrance.

The bio is at:

<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther_King%2C_Jr>.

This page tracks the edit history & vandalism:
