The Unforgettable Dr. King in his own words.

His voice was heard so many times and his words inspired many millions across the world. However, many still seem to think that his "I have a dream" speech is the most significant (if not the only one) major address. It has been suggested that a casual observer might think that Dr. King took a sabbatical between the years of 1963 and 1967. It cannot be further from the truth as he was organizing and speaking out perhaps even more than before. Democracy Now! broadcasts excerpts from his two other great speeches. One is the "Beyond Vietnam" speech he gave in New York city in 1967, which resonates so strongly today. When I listen to it I can't help but think of Dr. King as prophet and his words as predictions. If one only replaces few words in that speech - Vietnam with Iraq, and Communism with Terrorism - it will seem as if he was speaking only yesterday. The other speech is the "I Have Been to the Mountain Top" speech. He gave this one in Memphis on April 3rd 1968, a day before his assassination.
