No, it doesn't make any grammatical sense.

Recall the statement:

Quote:
Doing it while believing that men like Dr. Martin Luthor King was aiming for, not equality, but supremacy.
Now, considering what the phrase mean meant, it should have read this:

Quote:
Doing it while believing that men like Dr. Martin Luthor King were aiming for supremacy, not equality.
The first statement might have made sense, but it became muddled because of the incorrect usage of "was" in place of "were".

In short, Canuck, you need english lessons.
