Celebrating Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King. Jr.
Why The King Holiday Exists
Saturday-January 15 @ 7 PM CST
Encore presentations throughout the holiday weekend.
Dr. King came to St. Louis four times before his assassination in 1968. The first time was a few months after the successful 1956 Montgomery Bus Boycott. On April 10, 1957, King spoke at the Kiel Audirorium. Despite an audience of nearly 9,000 the event was not a headline in the St. Louis Post Dispatch or the Globe Democrat. Rev. Nance & Bonita Cornute have a conversation about Dr. King. Nance talks about the fact that King and his father's lifelong supportive and collaborative relationship started in college.
