MLK Talks 'New Phase' Of Civil Rights Struggle, 11 Months Before His Assassination | NBC News
His mild, intelligent, clear and strong voice speaks louder even today.
Compare him to our so called "president"
He really does! Brilliant man!
CRC Singleton hi. very articulate in his speech.
straight from the heart. don't have to write on no paper.
a great man gone down too soon
hope all who're alive will appreciate the good he did.
selflessly.
gave his whole life and we only sure about one.
God bless his seed forevermore.
amen.
This speech speaks more than his “I Have a Dream.” In my opinion.
Totally agree. Well put.
This is the MLK they don't want us to see, not MLK the dreamer, MLK the realist!!
Anyone who has ever read " Letter from a Birmingham jail " has also seen this side of the elocutious Dr King. He was a multifaceted man .
YES! I never new about his stance on economic disparity...him admitting that his dream turned into a NIGHTMARE. He was moving more in line with Malcom X beliefs. Yes - that is why he was killed....they wanted the passive man.
@@paulpardue5077 Oh this is a joke. I get it.😒😒
To fail to understand “The Dream” is to fail to understand that it is “The American Dream”!
He didn't need to shame Christians, they shame themselves everyday they don't live up to the Bible.
This is the Dr. King that schools will never educate you about...
@Jona O , FACTS 👑
This is the Dr. King which should be mandatory curriculum in all our schools including private schools, and if any school refuses, they should be brought into compliance kicking and screaming if necessary. He was a gift who was taken from us before we could see all which was wrapped within. What kind of country would we have now if we could have been able to fully know and understand everything about his phase two. Compare that with what we have now and the direction it will take us, and if you are a person of good will, your heart will break. It's time for a new struggle. a peaceful one, not a fight. One which is well thought out, and sends us back toward a "genuine equality"
@Gabe Catalfo Schools should not paint him anything. Let his words, actions, and thoughts be his paintbrushes, and allow him to paint himself.
Absolutely NOT.....
@@klg4life826 I am unsure which comment above you were referring to. Will you clarify? Also, if you could explain a bit more about your statement, it would be very helpful so that the readers of this thread (self included) may better understand where you're coming from, and your reasoning.
“The ultimate measure of a man is not where he stands in moments of comfort and convenience, but where he stands at times of challenge and controversy."- Martin Luther King Jr.🔥🔥
“Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.”
Sounds like one of his safe quotes that white people love to use….Ever wonder why they don’t ever quote his more powerful statements related to the foulness of the American government in funding white economic advancement while completely ignoring Black people.
Nice profile pic! 😊😊
Dr. King stated fours years after his I have a dream speech that he felt his dream had turned into a NIGHTMARE!!!….Our ancestor was a realist and he would be disgusted with the black bootlicks many of which who are immigrants that the Democratic Party is constantly reproducing that have regressed anything remotely resembling progress for Foundational Black Americans in our homeland.
Love this 🤜🏼🤛🏿
This should be required and repeated viewing in all public schools.
there is a reason that it isnt. MLK, 3letters, 3prases then shut him up before people get to thinking together
And what would change that ?
How did he do that? He's the one that got killed.
How were they garbage?
No the public school system wants to continue lying too children about white history, like telling them Columbus discovered America in 1492 BULL. It's part of the curriculum unfortunately. Lies all lies.
My father had an opportunity to meet MLK and shake his hand when he came to our city back in the 60's. My father, who greatly admired MLK, simply said of that meeting, "This was no ordinary man".
What a privilege thank you for sharing.I love listening to these interviews and I love Mahalia Jackson who was s friend of Martin Luther King and his family .. I listen to her she uplifts me and I love her .. What a truthful lovely man Martin Luther King was ... Godbless him and all the good people who were and are kind full of respect for the human race ...
You're welcome and Amen.@@vickyforster9366
Mr. King handled this interview with such grace, elegance & honesty!!
That was kind of his " mark" . It's just who he was.
I agree...he stood up while most of us just sit...white people are afraid of well educated Black man that can't be bought...They tried to get Martin and Malcolm to turn on each other...but they did not..proud!!😍

@@robertcomraddsr.3117 Sadly it wasn't just white people who benefit from turning them against each other. Opportunists were showing up in all colors with powerful agendas and they still do today.
Same game some new faces and we all lose unless we crowd it out with acts of kindness for one another. Everytime we as a human race divide they benefit.
Malcom X was a passionate man full of love who got fooled and when he found out and spoke out he was taken out of the game.
"Human beings cannot continue to do wrong without eventually rationalizing that wrong." I love him.
Yep, that is evident in our lives and we see that also in the laws being legalised by our various parliaments
Malcolm X spoke about how viscous and racist the North was.
It was and it still is.
It was subtle but powerful. Folks up here in the north thought there was no racism. I have family members tell me today oh it wasn't like that up here. Nah they just keep you all in Government housing bliss and good will. Ok. No property ownership
Pretty much.
Keisha Jones I live in the south but I had a friend visit from Pennsylvania who was amazed at how multiple races can live in the same neighborhood down here. His words were “it looks like down here you can live in the same neighborhood as long as you don’t cause trouble. Where I’m from no one cares if you cause trouble but you better not be in the wrong neighborhood.” At least in the south, if you meet a racist they’re honest. One of the reasons I stopped supporting Democrat’s and became an independent is from having to deal with the subtle bigotry of low expectations from so-called “well-meaning” Californian liberals. But nobody wants to talk about any of this.
briandamy me too.. I am independent.
A message to mainstream media: Start showing these real videos about the philosophy of Martin Luther King. Ease up on the "I have a dream" speech video. Delve into the profound insight of this man.
@Jo Jo Your second sentence aged like a fine wine.
I support u 1000% bro
Well said!!!
Yea, but it’s pretty hard not to see The I have a dream,, but yea, absolutely right. I loved that man.
Every time I hear him speak, my spirit is moved. So eloquent, with a tone of honesty and integrity. He is still, very impactful. His ability to articulate in such a simple, yet profound way is amazing. Amazing man
Yes, he is! If you have some knowledge of the Scripture, you know how God uses His creature for His will! Even then they are missed many of His truths, even then they a far from perfection and rightness, still He uses them and make them His jewels for His necklace and the Lord's crown! Dr. Luther had missed many chapters of the Scripture, that why we still have slavery as they had in his time and before him!
He had a great teacher and mentor who was even more eloquent than he....his father.
Can't get rid of slums and poverty without it costing the nation something....1967.....2019.........and

Seeing him interviewed really reveals who he was, because he had to come up with these brilliant responses on the spot. I never saw that side of him. So impressive.
I truly believed that God gave 🙏 Dr. MARTIN LUTHER KING JR. the vision to see and fight for justice for all race of people. He was and is an inspiration.
I agree
@@debralewis4444 I don't believe he gave him a vision he just gave him the courage too pursue it
Such a beautiful man and we were blessed to have him
He was a well-read man, wise far beyond his years. Life experiences the likes of which he had endured can either chill a man's heart or it can temper it.
This should be a mandatory study in our schools. The entire country should know their history.
King should have known his history too: www.oxfordaasc.com/public/features/archive/1013/essay.jsp
John Doe Two words for your studies... Black Wallstreet
John Doe (???) - What are you implying? Make it plain.
@@JohnDoe-mv4ks he did..black homesteading for land that was purchased by blacks with money that they earned is quite different than land grants GIVEN by the u.s. government to whites for FREE (aka welfare)
@@flewjewcoop5308ashkenazi are caucasian jews (converts to judaism)..not hebrews from the bible that are closer to modern day sephardi or falasha. Most ashkenazi dont even speak hebrew but yiddish because hebrew is not their native tongue, because they arent native hebrews
‘ It’s a cruel gesture to tell a bootless man to lift himself by his bootstraps’ king was a genius
I find these videos of him way more impactful than the I have a dream speech.
TRUTH
I agree 100%, however I still think the I have a Dream speech is one of if not the best speech ever given. Dr King was a very smart man and is accurate today as he was in the 60's. Gone way too soon, but I'm glad the world had him for 39 years!
It's two different settings. A Q & A session will always yield better dialogue.
Thats why they don't play those videos!! They do not want the truth about how much government assistance White people got in order for them to forge ahead. They want to create the narrative of hard working Whites who pulled themselves up from bootstrap with nothing and lazy Blacks who want government handout
Listen to his “The Other America” speech, especially as it pertains to people rioting. MANY whites LOVE to reference MLK as an argument to blacks rioting.
I saw his oldest son the airport, this was truly an honor, All I can say is he was a brave and very courageous man.His legacy and contribution to humanity must never be forgotten
You should have asked him why he has done absolutely nothing to progress his fathers vision in getting the Reparations that the American government owes to Foundational Black Americans😳😳
@@hmenef No one is forced to fill in for their parents. He lost his father early to assassination, you would be terrified and sad too. Why don't you progress MLKs vision instead of bother someone else? Just because he is MLKs son does not mean he is nearly as patient or soft spoken and I would like to give the benefit of the doubt that is an awfully large legacy to handle. The imposter syndrome could've gotten to him. Or maybe he simply just wanted a different life for himself and there is nothing wrong with that.
@@katelynderbidge3166very thoughtful response… fully agree.
Martin Luther king pastor with 2 baby mommas or more
His kids names are
Rodney B who was
born 2 years before he was “assasinated”
And ms jeanbaptiste
1 boy 1 girl
Laflorida
Lalouisiana
Him and Rosa parks had a baby as well
A boy
So hopefully all he preached in church
Was unification of black and white people
He was in and out of sheets
glorified
Can't lift yourself by your bootstraps if you're bootless. So elegantly said.
Was wise beyond his years
One of his best underlooked quotes. Even when free and treated equal socially, so many still walk bootless and are totally ok with it because it has become dogma on almost religious levels that this is how things should be.
16:40
Also you can't do it with boots because it's physically impossible.
Remy Pijuan Bootstraps*
He is so intelligent.
who isn't?
Does that surprise u?
Thats. Why hes. Interviewed. Knowledge. Ghetering to be used at a latter. Date.
The way he stands like he owns this interview. Just magnificent
Thats because he DID own the interview
I'm so impressed at how he doesn't let the interviewer choose the way things are phrased or interpreted. He uses the words he wants to use and then teaches about them. He's brilliant.
For MLK even having to explain this says just how racist & the decietful the U.S government was back then the same way it is now. Nothings change at all. The only difference now is that it's being done more covertly. Amerikkka is not a country, it's a corporation. An evil racist corporation that only serves those who it CHOOSES to serve. Now in todays time "they" make it hard & very complex for black ppl to have any legitimate opportunities but make it very easy & "hire friendly" for ALL other non-black races. Hindu/indian people, jews, spanish people, asians, etc., coming to this country every year by the hundreds or thousands & gets comfortably situated in amerikkkan society to where the US government quietly gives them everything they need to become successful in such a short period of time. You have immigrants who have absolutely no education nor job skills but yet is still able to gain so much in very little time. Some immigrants who's in this country illegaly with an extensive criminal history back in their own countries are able to gain so much in amerikkka with plenty assisstance from the government. Black unemployment is ALWAYS very high because black entrepreneurship is ALWAYS very low & the U.S government has certain people in certain positions to make sure it'll always remains that way
And what makes this interview so unique for the times is that it's in color!
THAT IS WHY THERE AREN'T MANY INTERVIEWS ON MAINSTREAM MEDIA OF THIS ICON THE REPORTERS HAD TO KNOW THEY WERE IN THE PRESENSE OF GREATNESS.
The Power, Etiquette, Calmness, Articulacy & even 'Swag' of MLK here is clearly undeniable. His rebuts & outward thinking makes you smile!!
“It’s a cruel gesture to say to a bootless man, he ought to lift himself up by his bootstraps”
*"It's a cruel jest to say to a bootless man..." is what he said.
@@Kafei lol
@Tj Gard Stop what, precisely?
@@Kafei Hence why Malcolm said by anymeans necessary .
@@dayosonictv I chimed in to correct a word that was misheard, Idk what you're on about.
They ended the interview real quick once he started talking about the money.
@Jawanza Diame, right, lol
He was trying to get reparations for us, he knew of the Homestead Act of 1866. MLK just said it in his own words about integration being the first stage meaning that it was symbolic and the most difficult part is getting tangible resources from the government. There's footage of an FBI informant that said that MLK was going to ask the government for 10 billion dollars. This is why we must continue to push for reparations, it is a historical debt, not a program for all to benefit from, and that includes the Statue of Liberty, there's shackles and chains on her feet. We must continue to know our history in order for us to unite ! B1
@Ali Davis Bruh, when have you ever seen this interview or him expressing the nightmare? He was trying to get tangibles, this is a national debt that's owed to the decendants of slaves!
Yyyyyup
@@Knightboomer_559 #B1 #ADOS
Why do we as black people explain ourselves to people who don't care.
To educate the people who were taught to be racist by the government. I hope yall never stop explaining the injustice y’all still endure today and continue shining light on this issue. I promise I will keep educating all the ignorant ppl inside of my race as well bc this walk isn’t over yet and it doesn’t need to stop until y’all are treated like my people which is nothing less than what’s right! 😩🙏🏼
American Fuel TV By placing racist laws in order. By only teaching white history. By lying about our history. By allowing slaves. By allowing segregation. By giving black ppl rough neighborhoods to live in after segregation. By making it illegal for black people to own a house after segregation and charging them almost double what the mortgage would’ve been if they were allowed to buy the house. By simply not having equal laws
The guy interviewing him clearly cares. Otherwise, it wouldn't be an interview...
@American Fuel TV , Did she answer your question dummie?
@KEB, Thank you for informing the simple minded 👑
So applicable for every generation. So calm, very poised, and articulate. His faith, vision,and courage is so inspiring! One of my favorite role models.
My daughter and I were saying the exact same thing 👌🏾🙌🏿❤️
In reality he kept his foot on the neck of the racist American government and demanded Reparations for Foundational Black Americans which is why the American government conspired to have him murdered😳😳
He did great j[ob
💯
How can a country that built all of its’ wealth off of human bondage and chattel slavery, murdered those who fought against racism white supremacy claim they are a good nation. The day of judgement is coming for America and all those who have and continue to contribute to maintaining the system of racism white supremacy.
They ended the video real quick when he said " we cant get rid of poverty or the slums without it costing the government something".

Anybody with Alf an education can talk but you have to lead by example. I lived those times. He spoke a good speech but as to hidd leadership he could not lead except by destruction and non-peaceful protests. And marches. It is all happening again.
@@paulpardue5077 ok boomer the 60s are over chill out you racist. MLK was never violent or led violent marches.
@@paulpardue5077 As much as non-violent protests are more morally right, even MLK was not oblivious to the fact that when they continue going unheard and only recieve beatings in response, then riots and violence are inevitable, and the only ones to blame are the ones who did not listen. "A riot is the language of the unheard."
The government/whites
Who listening to this in 2019 and realizing, nothing has changed!!!!! 😬😬😬
Who in 2019 realizes the media were elitist then and still are now?
Token and "Good Negroes" would disagree with your accurate statement!
If I woke up from a 1000 year frozen sleep state, I would had thought this interview was done yesterday.
Me!
You already know!
"You can't 'thingify' anything, without depersonalizing that something." This man was talking that TALK!
He walked the walk too.
@@DominicPowell oh I know.
14:08
Dominic Powell Right that’s the most important part and the one we’ve been missing in leadership the last 50 years
MLK Jr. was a global thinker who evolved. The so-called "I have a Dream" speech was repackaged to misrepresent his work. If you listen or read the beginning of that speech, it was a critique of capitalism and the injustice that black people endured in this country. His breakdown is masterful regarding black people's plight in the north. It's interesting, that his position had become similar to Malcolm's position regarding the treatment of black people in the north as well as liberals' commitment to equality. Malcolm X stated that black people need to stop talking bad about the south, Malcolm stated "as long as you are south of the Canadian border, you are south." MLK Jr. will always be my hero because he put his life on the line, to challenge the injustices in this system. Listen to his comments about "white backlash." Black people are now in 2022, and still face white back lash (i.e. 1/6 Insurrection and voter suppression). Lastly, it's amazing that history doesn't want to recall his position about redistributing wealth, to right the wrong, that was done to black people.
Basically MLK was speaking on Critical Race Theory but one wouldn't know based on the false narratives that has been perpetuated about each one.
Very true brother
Very well stated! They’ll only use parts of Dr. King that fit their narrative!
Exactly...they have white-washed MLK so much over the years it is sickening. Malcolm and Martin had different methods but the same message...but I will say that after Malcolm was assassinated MLK was becoming more aware of what was going on, especially when it came to whites, he was becoming "woke" and then what happened? They killed him! RIP MLK

@@saywhat6250 I agree but as far as business is concerned " I don't understand how we can start any business venture without buying material , land, power , building etc " from the White man . From industrial to cosmetic or any business venue it's going to take American money and connections . So we gotta shake hands with them if that's what you're after .
Old TV Movie called King with Paul Winfield. If you watch that what you said is portrayed. His fear but The Courage to continue. It is fascinating to see it and imagine all that he went through to maintain the action of moving "the movement" forward.
He was definitely overwhelmed around this time. He said it many times to those close to him. He cussed out his own team because they had stopped supporting him, and didn't even realize it. They became so content with small victories, that they lost sight on the larger problems. But still, he pulled himself together and kept moving. So young. Great man.
This is why he was assassinated! Martin was not assassinated because he had a dream, but because he woke up ! And they will never play his last speeches of his life because he whole philosophy changed to more of a Malcom x approach. This is why they always just play the I have dream speech
Chaylen Patricia Right!
History knows not so many people, dedicated to do God's will, and all of them were martyrs for their thoughts and faith in God! All of them had suffered a lot and felt a huge press from evil's power (Yes, it is! He still has a huge power!), but remained devoted to faith and God! For this reason they are safe for His eternity and He is proud of them! An unique for the contemporary society revolution of faith, revolution of God, revolution of love and for love in the only right and based on Scripture's principle - is None violent way of sharing thoughts, feeling, and faith to take your rights back and to use them properly for the God's will! History does know such experience and movement any more as MLK's movement had and achieved, unfortunately! Shame for all humanity and praise the Lord for His servant, Dr. Luther! I am sure, human society during history by today, 2018th, did not appreciated what was MLK's movement about and their relation for the equality for humanity worldwide! But I do hope, the time will come soon when human being will appreciate God's truth more then their selfishness, and will be moved by His love toward each of us! I do be-leave, the common sense and love for truth and Gog will give power of His Spirit to prove Him who is His child and will help them to step on the narrow way of liberty and eternity! God help us to follow You everywhere! Amen!
Woke up? You mean he was ACTIVATED by his jewish handlers.
Not true! Dr. King never conformed to Malcolm X teachings. They were always at odds with each other because of how Dr. King's constantly stood up for black rights through non violence means....so, please stop with Dr. King was assassinated because he woke up! People please seek understanding and knowledge before speaking nonsense!
Yes!!! You are so right!!!
It’s amazing how clearly he saw everything and how much sense it makes what he’s saying. The intelligence of this man.
It's amazing that his words resonate truth even now.

Oh how weary he would be if he were still alive today. There is nothing GREAT about this America.... slow progress is no progress.
Thats bc its the objective truth when talking about this evil system
He had such hurt in his eyes. 😢 I only wish I could have sat in Dr. King's presence and listened just once. He still feels here with us. ❤
Yes, I see that hurt. Also he looks stressed out and harassed in his spirit, but still speaking strong.
His profundity, erudition, clarity of thought, the ability to interweave historical context of black history in America was magnificent. Dr. King was in many ways a modern day prophet and a catalyst for far reaching change. Imagine a man with his mind/ spirit/ articulateness as President. RIP MLK , and grateful eternally that you came into the world for a time.
❤❤❤
God he's intelligent
went to college at 15 yrs old.
And that’s a power greedy racist biggest nightmare. The intelligent black man with power. Hence the reason why he was murdered.
@@summersays which is terrible
Graduated with a masters degree at 22 as well...just brilliant academia we see.
The most eloquent man I have ever heard speak. The man was literally sent from heaven
He was incredible. What a brilliant man and everything he said is so true. His death was such a huge loss.
We can carry on his spirit for ourselves though, he gave us that gift
Very true 💯
True
Murder. People gotta remember that
So profound, so knowledgeable, so brave, so clear and concise. We miss you King.
Every word used via question and answer had absolute significance. One of the best interviews I have ever seen.
I agree. Props to Sander Vanocour for asking the questions other journalists would not.
Slow speech, calm, focused. We need him now!
Desperately
Unfortunately he isn't physically here, but we can mimic his behaviors. That's what the left should be doing anyway. Instead burning cities and beating old women in the street is there solution now.
Amen!!..absolutely I knw Dr King wasnt c into politics..he would definitely need to be assigned to as America's Civic n Moral Board in the Congress..he could bring both parties together..his words permeated the soul..it affected ur conscience knw matter who u are..RIP Dr King soo inspiring
Charles Byrge we so. Red him now!! Where are our leaders?
He would have been an amazing president.
You can't argue with him. He is a genius
D.O.C.C Music by the grace of Our Holy God Jesus Christ
He listened so well! He answered each question with no hesitancy and had a adequate answer for each question.. his level of intelligence was outta this world
he was geniuss, rellyyy
He was definitely called by God and anointed for this purpose. Intelligence is incredible.
Purpose Driveñ I really don’t like when people give undeserved credit to god. Can people ever just accomplish things themselves?
@@connorcriss Yes they can but DR. King was a man of faith, and he gave all the credit to God
Purpose Driveñ INCredible
It’s hard to say what God does and does not do when one does not know Him.
Agreed
When he started taking about money, that's when the assassin's plan started.
Simba Durio I believe with this as well.👊🏾👊🏾
Absolutely!
yup and the labor movement and the Vietnam war. It was time for him to go. Same w/Malcolm X. Once he came back from his pilgrimage to Mecca and separated himself from Elijah Muhammed and started talking about unity and him and
Dr MLK Jr. were going to come together.
Economics and the war is when he had to go.
COINTELPRO always had a plan in motion to eliminate Dr. King just as they did others.
He was obviously a great thinker and influential leader. I just noticed something, he RARELY if ever stutters! It’s quite amazing. He always knows fully what he’s going to say before it comes out.
Love you too woman Love KIMBERLY Love
Honestly, it’s not that hard! He talks at his own pace! People stutter because they often time feel rushed or are still gathering thoughts. He takes moments to think before he articulates himself. Therefore he’s alway prepared even on questions that surprise him. It’s all about wisdom. “Knowing what you know, and knowing that there’s things you don’t know”
@@JiggyMark facts
Not everyone stutter like Joe Biden...
You must know a lot of people who stutters? I've known some but that's because they had speech impediments.
The calm appearance of confidence coupled with intelligence that he displayed is just awe inspiring
51 years later the same thing
TYRONE THOMPKINS the same thing I agree
TYRONE THOMPKINS Exactly!!!! GD SHAME

It's this type of twisted, biased, tunnel-visioned view of black people that continues to add fuel to the fire of racism. Say what you want, WE know our worth. It's our greatness that generates so much hate!
Yes, it is, with some differences! Do you know why? To fight against segregation is not the same as to fight against slavery! Equality from the points of vision of Dr. Luther was NOT enough for the conception of the full truth of equality according to the God's Truth! That's why: in the past we had segregation and slavery, and MLK's movement fought against segregation and equal rights as citizens only, but they have never fought towards slavery itself! Dr. Luther had never mention that any job must be equally respected for many reasons, and must come in a result for any laborer in a equal appreciation of his hour of labor to other employees of the company inclusive the boss! If you do NOT have a solution for slavery and you keep his prosperity, it is a fullness to fight against poverty and full yourself! Till you keep and feed slavery, no matter how much you pay your employees: a 10 million check or a $100, you are slave -owner till appreciate their labor differently! Check the parable of Christ about a householder and his vineyard (Matthew 20, Mark 12, Luke 13)! How is to appreciate everyone the same, even their labor were different! Is it fair? It is more than fair! It is generous towards who work less, but are appreciated equally! What a generosity? What an equality?
No not the same .
Isn't that funny? I had never thought about the fact that European immigrants were encouraged to come to the USA and get free land, yet the native black population were not offered the same courtesy. Being a big fan of history and railroads (who encouraged settlement of the West), this thought simply never occurred to me. MLK continues to shine a spotlight on my ignorance, even 50+ years later. I am SO glad I came across this video. And I promise to keep on learning.
If we're lucky,we learn something new everyday. No matter how old we are. ✌❤
Sad to say that everything he addressed in this interview is still very present today in 2019.MLK spoke so eloquently
And even more so Now 2020. Very Sad.
This Mfr (TRUMP) is crazy! July 7, 2020 ✊🏾
Andrea Williams No, it’s NOT the same. You’re young, but I grew up during these times. It is certainly not yet how it needs to be, but it is a far cry from the way things were when Dr King was alive. I pray that great new changes come with haste, and days arrive that Dr King could only dream of. God bless us all with His grace to grow to TRULY be “Brothers & Sisters that LOVE one another.
Andrea Williams very sad
He was one of the most powerful and talented orators of the 20th century. He didn't waste any words, he considered every word that he spoke prior to speaking it. His manner was very agreeable too.
what an incredible man. I sit here crying that he was taken so soon.
He was such a beautiful man! Really, just regal.
He might never have used violence, but he really was a radical and a revolutionary. His real dream is yet to be realized. He is a whole lot more than the I Have A Dream speech.
Jo Jo - I support the right of individuals to file claims against states and/or businesses that implemented Jim Crow/red lining-like laws. Is there a case to be made against the federal government for reparations given our states vs federal government structure... especially given how the state vs federal issue was viewed at the time?
“What advantage is there being integrated into a burning house” Wow. I’m so sad our world lost this great man too soon. I’m thankful these videos live on. I wish this was what was taught to me in school.
For MLK even having to explain this says just how racist & the decietful the U.S government was back then the same way it is now. Nothings change at all. The only difference now is that it's being done more covertly. Amerikkka is not a country, it's a corporation. An evil racist corporation that only serves those who it CHOOSES to serve. Now in todays time "they" make it hard & very complex for black ppl to have any legitimate opportunities but make it very easy & "hire friendly" for ALL other non-black races. Hindu/indian people, jews, spanish people, asians, etc., coming to this country every year by the hundreds or thousands & gets comfortably situated in amerikkkan society to where the US government quietly gives them everything they need to become successful in such a short period of time. You have immigrants who have absolutely no education nor job skills but yet is still able to gain so much in very little time. Some immigrants who's in this country illegaly with an extensive criminal history back in their own countries are able to gain so much in amerikkka with plenty assisstance from the government. Black unemployment is ALWAYS very high because black entrepreneurship is ALWAYS very low & the U.S government has certain people in certain positions to make sure it'll always remains that way
Not to be “that guy” but he was quoting James Baldwin when he said this
You can now look toward Dr Umar Johnson on UA-cam for all your African obsessions ✊🏿
Now we know why they teach us "I Have a Dream"
@@David.lovesU 🙄.
Probably one of the wisest men that has ever graced this planet 🕊️
MLK was so awesome. Wish he were still alive today. I would've loved to talk to him.
Great man.
This is what the educators need to be teaching and showing in schools.
The truth shall been told years ago

No it's not. Unless you send your children to an African centered school. YOU need to be teaching this to your children.
The evil powers that be fear this just as they feared him.
Amazing he is so ahead of his time
He was on time.. White America was late :/
Not really, things haven't changed much. He would have been a great President
Nawl, he was on time
He was not. He was exposing the cruelty in America towards people of color. And how it is not fair that a class of people are beneath another because of extreme racism in America.
Not ahead, he changed course once he and Malcolm became friends. The government didn't care when it was turn the other cheek. Once that part changed and that didn't tow the line then he looked at as a threat.
Black people are so powerful
not all lol
You do realize ALL Black/melanated people are not the same. Many have fled their countries instead of fighting back.
You can't deny that this man has a way with words. A very eloquent man.
"Integration at its best is the opportunity to participate in the beauty of diversity." Beautiful words. Wish we had a voice like MLK right now.
@Ryan Harren integration was not a mistake you segregationist
I work out to this interview every morning.
16:17, This is a gold post! Dr. King is one of our country's greatest treasures. A truly great man.
Freedom and famine at the same time. Preach
"My dream has turned into a nightmare"...........nuff said.
dana arnold he was a rare man he was a true leader
He'd still be alive if he WASN'T.
@@robertbalibrera2583 It was never about him
Robert balibrera MALCOLM X a real leader
Dr. King did not say that!
“The Dream became a nightmare”
FACT!!!!
Dr. King has a great knowledge of LOVE and TRUTH.
Dr. King did not say that. Listen to his interview.
What a well spoken inspiring man, I love how he just devours every question with great intelligence.
Wow, it's been a year since I last watched this. It still puts shivers down my spine. It's not necessarily a positive interview, but it's more truth than the nation could handle. Every word and tone is flawless and deliberate. Very few ppl can speak like this, and they'll never be another king. More than any rock star, president or celebrity... he would be my top choice to shake hands and maybe grab a coffee.
,; Nv b;:v;;:vbb Bpl
And here I am watching again. I'm moving to another interview afterwards
Just have to say this: The fact that there are (at this time) 14 people who have given this a thumbs down is heartbreaking. I pray for all of my neighbors of color.
Kurt Willems I bet you money that most of those thumbs down are from other black people who think mlk is an “Uncle Tom”.
🤔🖤
Kurt Willems thank you
I doubt that, but such ignorance is possible
Some are not so impressed by constant non-violence. Dr. King was blind to the fact that all of the progress made in the south was not real progress. They got a couple of pats on the head here and there and we're allowed to frequent white businesses, but nothing that would lead to actual freedom and control of one's own future was obtained. The state of the South today is proof of that.
He was so INTELLIGENT!!! He would have definitely been our first PRESIDENT so much class and dignity.
How would he be our first president? George Washington had that long ago
@@rambomoore381 I think @Keyna Parks is referring to black president
Still is. The nation within a nation. Bump they paperwork.
Awesome footage. He would have made a great president.
David W. Johnson yes but no.. too much corruption..presidents have to live with blood on their hands.. he did more in the role that he had.. they have to answer to special groups..
I was literally thinking the same
Dr. King planned to run for president in 1968 as third party candidate, on an anti-war platform. Definitely part of the reason why he was assassinated.

Very eloquent interview with Dr. Martin Luther King. His words are still relevant to this nation and its issues.
“Bootless Man”....
Wow! He was spot on with his words! ✊🏾
I just learned the term "retrogress" from this timeless interview of Dr. Martin Luther King.
Their are 3 evils in our nation: Racism, Economic Exploitation of Poverty and Militarism.
What advantages are there integrating into a burning house.
That dream i had that day has in many points turned into a nightmare.
- MLK
Truly a man of God " my hero " unselfish and courageous even in the face of death ! SALUTE
Amen! God used him in a mighty way.
That,s,t,thatthayisgoodinewisnogood
“Installment plan for equality “ what a quote that’s so true!!
"I Fear I may have integrated my people into a burning house" -MLK
@@globaldigitaldirectsubsidi4493 i.e. The WHITE DEMOCRAT DEVILS
Dr. king never said that. Some jealous living, breathing person lied on him! That person knows nothing about the movement.
This quote brings chills down my spin.
Queen Fulton he did say it on multiple occasions. On one occasion he was having his last conversation with Harry Belafonte.

A man way ahead of his time
When you think about it in this whole clip he’s talking about getting reparations among foundational black America
What about Everybody?

MLK please send us an angel. You are the greatest. My heart bleads for your wisdom.
Perhaps that angel is you. Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Well articulated, calm, straight to the point and so encyclopedic! We love you Dr. King 💙
Knowing the times as I did back then, MLK had to be one of the most courageous people that walked the Earth without a firearm. 'Had never seen this interview. Extremely grateful it was saved and later placed on UA-cam!
Dr. King didn't walk around without without a firearm by choice. Dr. King was denied a concealed carry permit.
@@corneilusmcgillicuddy So he was denied concealed carry while the Panthers were denied open carry, by the NRA and Governor Reagan no less?
RIP. Thank you for never giving up and giving all of us a better life.
Amazing how it's 2021, we're still having these same conversations🤷🏿♂️
Because just like this video, the conversation is always stopped short once the subject of money & “who owes what” starts...
And it will continue until the world ends. We live in an evil world full of hatred people
@@mrsbdubc2174 we sure do sir!!!!!
it seems to me society as a whole has been in a kind of social loop since the late 60's. I'm not so sure that's purely an accident anymore.
Take this interview for example, it cuts off practically mid-thought right where it'd seem natural to discuss ideas for solutions. I doubt it was edited out for the sake of brevity. I wonder why.
This reminds me of another thing I'm sure crosses most people's minds more than a few times: why is discussing ideas for real tangible solutions to inequality and poverty practically banned from all major media? Why are we constantly served bad faith arguments of talking heads packaged as dialogue instead of, oh I don't know, a real dialogue?
I think this dialogue is purposefully being suppressed and this repeating cycle every 7-10 years is a symptom of that.
It shouldn't even be 2021!
Thank goodness they have recorded this interview. Thank you for allowing this to be viewed.
❤
Why wasn’t this broadcasted as highly as his “I Have a Dream” speech? Also, he knew the same issues in America would still be a problem many many years later.
Because they wanted every black person to believe in their American Dream which was only for the white man and we fell for it this is only one of the reasons every black person was still hoping that things would change for our children but at the end you see that even Martin Luther King realize that things was not going to change in Babylon for God's people and this is what the Bible say it will not change until the Son of God return which is Christ and established his kingdom here on Earth then Jacob Shell rule again
Stop, bruh...u know why

You can tell just how smart he is by how he holds himself. That's what you get from a college student at age 15...
The racist white supremacist media never tells you that Dr. King was a child prodigy.
@@corneilusmcgillicuddy -Tf are you talking?
We all know he was a child prodigy!? It is quite known all across the US.
@@marcelmendez6968 No it's not. People know that Dr. King went to Morehouse, but people don't know that he was attending Morehouse from 15 - 19.
@@corneilusmcgillicuddy -What does this detail even do to his legacy? We all know who he is. Leave him to rest a peace.
He could be a mathematician genius, and it wouldn't matter. We know his actual work.
@UCuAptp4UujpIZWyDFaRmgsw -All this about race. Leave race alone grow up. Drop the ideologies. Quit trying to “show.” White people, you have the capacity of anything. In all honesty, they don't even care.
That's the problem with the black community. You keep perpetuating the same issue over again. Just leave it alone.
White supremacy 🤦♂️
Goodlord. Can't we grow up like Latinos, Arabic, and Asians? They behave and have a dam better culture than we do.
He was so ahead of his time ... He’s the greatest thinker I have ever listened to 🙌🙌
Actually he wasn't.
Everything he's talking about is from the bible. You know...the book no one reads....😕.
MLK i look up to him as if he was a father figure to me. i listen to his speeches and its so beautiful and heart warming. from the struggles and the peace marches he has taught me to be a better person on how to respect help and love others, and never judge no matter if they are black, poor, rich, just learn to love one another. I wish he was still here. I am so happy that the videos still exist and that we can cherish MLK words for ever. God bless Martin Luther King.
Rest in pardise Martin Luther King Jr
My aunt and uncle saw him give a sermon in that church that same year. Proud to have been born and raised in Atlanta because of MLK and Jimmy Carter.
Thank God that Dr. King was on this earth, and we still have his words.
thats all they WANT YOU TO HAVE MECCA,,,
Did this segment ever air? It's magnificent, visionary, encouraging and heart breaking...
