MLK



Today is Martin Luther King Day. Few have contributed more to the American experience than MLK and while his legacy is often defined by his tireless fight for civil rights, it should not be forgotten that he was a pacifist to the core and an outspoken opponent of the Vietnam War.

Listen to his Beyond Vietnam -- A Time to Break Silence speech delivered on April 4, 1967 at the Riverside Church in New York City.
