Today marks the 51st anniversary of Rev. Martin Luther King Jr.'s death. In the first 'Voices of the Movement' episode with CapehartJ, civil rights leaders who were close to King share their stories of that day:
The veterans of the civil rights movement made history, but they are eager for you to know something: They didn’t set out to be heroes or icons. On two occasions this year, these brave men and women gathered to reflect on their experiences and the legacy they're leaving — for people like me who benefited from their courage and for the kids growing up in today’s shifting world.
Some of them are names you know, some aren’t — but all of them have stories that need to be told while they're still here to tell them. This audio series from the “Cape Up” podcast brings you the stories and reflections of some of these leaders, and their lessons on where we go from here.
