An Intimate Conversation with Martin Luther King

I did not watch the whole conversation as it is more than 1 hour and 40 minutes long. However, the first 12 minutes make it abundantly clear that Martin Luther King Jr. was a militant activist who targeted the most segregated city (Birmingham, AL) for greatest effect and impact. He chose so called non-violence to prevent violence, but he was like an agent provocateur! Had he chosen less provocative and confrontational measures ...

I have blogged here about Martin Luther King Jr. multiple times, just click on the label/tag nearby. E.g. did you know there was a second assassination attempt on his life, which he barely survived? Why don't we know about it? The assassin was a black American woman!
