In fact, Billy Graham held segregated rallies until 1954, stopping only with Brown vs. Board of Education, when his segregated rallies were poorly received among white liberals. Graham was never a leader of anti-racism, only a follower.

You cite MLK in a flattering comment, ignoring MLK's slashing critique of Graham as the representative "white moderate" in "Letter from Birmingham Jail" where he says the white moderate is worse than the KKK. (see: Douglas A. Sweeney, The American Evangelical Story: A History of the Movement, 2005).

You dove for the flattery, that is, but ignored the critique. The ways of racism are displayed.
