On the anniversary of Dr. King's "Letter from a Birmingham City Jail" (April 16, 1963), a message from his last speech, just four days before he was assassinated, becomes a call-to-action for today. With this episode of The Janus Adams Show, we pay tribute to the man and his legacy: THANK YOU, DR. KING,
The jail cell pictured here is a replica of the actual cell in which he wrote his historic "Letter." It is on permanent exhibit at the National Civil Rights Museum in Memphis, TN. The museum is housed at the now-sacred site of Dr. King's assassination―the Lorraine Motel. Dr. King delivered what would be his last speech at the National Cathedral in Washington, DC on March 31, 1968. He was assassinated on April 4. Portions of this special episode of The Janus Adams Show first aired to commemorate the 50th anniversary of his assassination (April 4, 2018).
