KTAL is proud to offer this important speech to our listeners.
A speech that Dr. King gave in 1961 at the Temple Emanuel synagogue in Worcester, Mass. was preserved in a cassette recording that was forgotten for many years and was rediscovered in Las Cruces, remastered in 2017 and made available to KTAL for broadcast. Presented early in 1961, the speech was given as the civil rights movement was picking up steam following the successes of the Montgomery bus boycott, the lunch counter sit-ins, Brown v. Board of Education, and shortly after the inauguration of John F. Kennedy. The challenge of racial injustice is still with us, and Dr. King’s words still ring true today. KTAL is proud to offer this important speech to our listeners. Comments are closed.
