Well Martin King changed his name to Martin Luther King because of Martin Luther.

I genuinely thought it was going to be a skin. Thank God it's not lol
I'm genuinely surprised the devs had to foresight to not make him a skin lol. Can you imagine how many edgy teens would re-enact his assassination and troll the match if they had him? >_>

Apparently this emote is still enabled on this map >_________________________________>



BRUH. How do you miss that? You're just begging to have edgy teens troll your shit lol
Oh god. I can already imagine it, a bunch of players with the white marshmallow dj skin doing that emote towards players with the black panther skin.

I don't understand why they didn't disable emotes/dances at the very least. They really should have also forced players into using the generic Fortnite people.

Remember all those attempts during the 90s to try and provide education through entertainment? Like the US only Mario's Time Machine, Luigi Is Missing, or the WB crossover Histeria that focused on teaching kids stuff? And how everybody ended up making fun of these forms of "edutainment"? I'm guessing the same is gonna happen to this in 5 years or so with people being like, "Remember when Fortnite tried to teach about black history?"

I feel that's a 'break the contract to stop the emote and make DC look like the racist assholes for fighting against it' kinda moment.

That was one of my first thoughts, the man was not a violent man, that was Malcom X who was more militant in fighting for equality.

honestly DC likely would be fine with disabling it if they just asked

but well epic games dont really care which is why they put so little effort into anything beyond the attempt at getting good PR
