Description

On April 4, 1968, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. (MLK) was assassinated at the Lorraine Motel in Memphis, Tennessee.


Robert F. Kennedy, the brother of former President John F. Kennedy, addressed the supporters of his own 1968 Presidential Campaign the next day.


Not long after giving this speech, Robert F. Kennedy himself was assassinated on June 5, 1968, after winning the California and South Dakota primaries for President of the United States.


This song and podcast were made in honor of Black History Month in 2021, after the entire United States, and the world, collectively overcame 2020, the year of worldwide shutdowns and lockdowns due to the Covid-19 global pandemic.
