Memorial Day.

Posted by: Jazzy on May 25 2009.

In honor of Memorial Day, I thought it was appropriate to release a moving speech by Dr. King from 1967. This speech was released by Black Forum records, a subsidiary of Motown, and went on to win a Grammy in 1970 for the Best Spoken Word Recording. It documents his feelings on the Vietnam war, and why he strongly opposed it.
