A documentary screening in remembrance of Dr Martin Luther King.
The University of Johannesburg’s Institute for Pan-African Thought and Conversation (IPATC), in collaboration with the Wits African Centre for the Study of the United States (ACSUS), will host the screening of a documentary in remembrance of Dr Martin Luther King, Jr.
Professor Adekeye Adebajo, Director, IPATC, and Professor Gilbert Khadiagala, Director, ACSUS, will lead a discussion after the screening of the documentary. Written and directed by Thomas Friedman, Dr Martin Luther King, Jr: A Historical Perspective offers a one-of-a-kind examination of King’s extraordinary life. Using rare and largely unseen footage and photographs, Friedman explores how King’s ideas, beliefs and methods evolved in the face of the rapidly changing climate of the Civil Rights Movement.
