Remembering "KING" on the Anniversary of his Assassination
 
Today marks the 40th anniversary of the assassination (April 4, 1968) of Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.

This Sunday, April 6, 2008, at 8pm ET the "KING" documentary will air on the History Channel. It will chronicle King's life as a Civil Rights leader, husband, father, and American citizen who changed the course of America for ALL Americans.

Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was/is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.

Sounds like a perfect way to spend my Friday night to me, but the show is on Sunday, not tonight, if you read the first post in this thread.

MLK was/is an Alpha and the "KING" documentary airs this Sunday.

I have been to the Civil Rights Museum at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis. It is a powerful experience to stand on that balcony.

I watched Soledad O'Brien's program on CNN last night. It was very well done, I thought.

I'll remember the adultery, communism, and plagiarism.

And the very eloquent speeches.
