In a recent article published in Standpoint Magazine, Pulitzer Prize-winning Martin Luther King Jr. biographer David Garrow details new information about King he discovered in FBI documents. The most damaging is that King may have witnessed – and encouraged – a sexual assault at a Washington, D.C. hotel in January 1964.
Some historians have cautioned against taking too much stock of Garrow’s findings; the FBI, after all, has a well-known track record of trying to undermine the beloved civil rights leader.
But in the ensuing controversy, one aspect of Garrow’s explosive, 7,800-word article has gone largely overlooked.
Garrow publishes content from FBI files noting that a woman named Dorothy Cotton was King’s “constant paramour.” He also details FBI wiretaps from 1964 noting that King’s wife, Coretta, “berated” him “for not spending enough time alone with her.” At the time of the phone call, according to the FBI files, King was with Dorothy at a hideaway apartment in Atlanta. Garrow, at one point in his piece, calls Cotton “the most important woman in King’s life.”
More and more it's looking like MLK wasn't the saint everyone has always painted him to be.

Normally this info would be trivial and largely unimportant to history. However in the wake of the me too movement we either have standards or we do not....OR...we have double standards.

Yep, if you're going to destroy mens lives for past discretions, you have to be consistent about it. I sincerely doubt however this story will resonate.

Believe it or not the word discretion can be used interchangeably with the word indiscretion. It's a more elite version of the noun and more likely to be used in England than it is in the United States.
I don't know if the poster intended that meaning or if he just forgot to put the IN in front of the other word.
Just saying
