Martin Luther King Jr.’s Missouri Legacy and Why It Still Matters

from Show Me Today - The Voice of Missouri

When we think of Martin Luther King Jr., we often picture him on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. Dr. King’s work and his challenges to the nation extended far beyond Washington, D.C. Show Me Today looks at his impact in Missouri: the times he spent in the state, the movements he influenced, and what his message means as we continue to wrestle with questions of justice, equality, and democracy. Joining Bill Pollock is Gary Kremer, Executive Director Emeritus and Senior Fellow with the Center for Missouri Studies at the State Historical Society of Missouri.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
