Chapter Six: A Taste of the World
The Montgomery Bus Boycott is over, and King is firmly a national figure. In our longest episode yet, we learn who says “I don’t mind your criticizing my ideas. But I don’t like your criticizing my words, because I’m better at words than you are,” where in the world did MLK meet Vice President Richard Nixon, and what his thoughts on Nixon where, what Civil Rights leader starts early on preaching to chickens and cries when they are dinner, who is my Septima Clark, what main character is attacked by a sharp object first, and who is attacked second and almost dies, and what song is playing in the background and why! All that some communist talk, a trip to India, and much more!
Intro music by The Staples Singers “Freedom Highway” 1965.
