Martin Luther King's Laundry Day

This joke plays on the idea that Martin Luther King, a civil rights leader who fought against racial segregation, wouldn't separate white and colored clothes in the laundry. It's a dark joke because it uses a serious historical figure and the legacy of racial issues for a pun.
