There was no author identified on the MLK site I visited. There were no credentials. What I can tell you about the group that made this site is they all have white pride and they are extremely racist. The website address did not have any affiliation to professional organization, school, or governement. The content is definitely not appropriate for use in schools. The content of the site is bias. They are coming from a racial viewpoint. I don’t trust their sources. It seems that they base all of their information on FBI bugs, that have never even been released, not to say they actually even exist. The audience of the site is not suitable for students. Most students would be able to read it but probably wouldn’t understand some of it. The design of the site is horrible. Yes it does load fast and they use graphics appropriately. However, a lot of the links did not even work. I could not see a couple of the flyers and the educational video could not be found.

Kids can learn to be less trusting of information on the internet by having them look up sites similar to this but not so graphic (talking about sex and f**k word) and racist. Kids should be taught about looking for the author of the website and who the site is affiliated with. They can do this simply by looking at the address.

When I searched google for MLK the site came up fourth on the list. The reason it is so high on the list is because their web address only says martinlutherking.org and there are a lot of matches for people using those keywords.
