[In collaboration with the News Beat Podcast]
Martin Luther King, Jr.'s legacy encompasses so much more than simply his 'I Have a Dream' speech, and his mission is as imperative today as it was then. We republish âMLK: What They Wonât Teach in Schoolââour 2017 inaugural episodeâeach MLK Day as a reminder of the civil rights leaderâs lasting impact, the movementâs ongoing struggle, and still unrealized goals. Learn some of what the history books left out. Featuring interviews with Pastor Roger C. Williams of the First Baptist Church of Glen Cove, NY and Larry Hamm of the Newark, NJ-based social justice group People's Organization for Progress; original verses performed by hip hop artist Silent Knight; and Kingâs own words, listeners learn about MLKâs Poor Peopleâs Campaign, which he believed would be his true legacy. More than likely, it was this that got him killed.
