Click the image of Dr. King. I'm sure this will change pretty rapidly, but right now Rock The Vote is linking it to http://www.martinlutherking.org , which is a white supremacist website hosted by Stormfront.

Oops?

It's already changed:)

On an eerie sidenote, at this very moment, I'm writing a pedagogy-paper where I discuss Stormfront's website on Martin Luther King.

That sounds like a whole lot of effort.

Yeah, I saw this while it was still up. The front page of mis-linked website is so innocent too. I could easily picture some web jockey typing in the URL, editing the main page, clicking on the link to make sure everything was working A-okay and noticing that it linked to white supremacist literature.

I definitely got a good James-Bond-villain-esque evil laugh out of it though.

I wonder if they've ever linked to whitehouse.com
