If you were to write down a list of the most significant Americans, he probably wouldn't crack the top ten thousand.

Even granting recency bias, so limiting it to people in the 20th century, he might maybe crack the top thousand.

So what happened?

Every religion needs a martyr. He's the modern-day Jesus Christ, not flame.

The US was re-founded in the 1960s. MLK is a founding father of the modern state.

See Christopher Caldwell, The Age of Entitlement.

Mimetic expression of a significant moment in history (Civil Rights movement), pushed by the man as a cooperative negro unlike Malcolm X. In 1968 civil rights could have gone several ways and the powers that be decided they wanted the MLK way.

figures that push globohomo get highlighted in globohomo history, figures that go against the globohomo party line get smeared or excluded in globohomo history, its not complicated

the Italians paid their dudes and got Columbus Day for their efforts.

King did and said a lot of great things and African-Americans certainly paid their dues and got a holiday for their overall dues and for the Civil Rights movement too, which was massively important.

tbf, Juneteenth is founded on a more seminal event (end of slavery following a civil war) and the elite African-Americans have worked endlessly to recast King away from the persona that made him so important. still, King Day is well earned.
