From Montgomery to Memphis to Minneapolis: The Legacy of Martin Luther King (G&R 457)
Description
It's MLK Day weekend. We discuss the radical legacy of King. His
opposition to the Vietnam war, the Poor Peoples' Campaign, his
campaign to boycott the 1968 Olympics and his socialist politics. We then discuss his influence in the resistance to state violence that we're seeing today in the streets of Minneapolis and other places.
We're in a critical point where great forces are trying to break the legacy of Dr. King. Our message remains the same as his, make trouble, misbehave and get into the streets!
