Films in Focus: Monthly Movie Night & Community Conversation

This month’s film “MLK: A Call to Conscience” delves into one of Martin Luther King Jr.'s greatest speeches, "Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence," which Dr. King delivered on April 4, 1967. Today this speech is acknowledged to be one of the most powerful ever written by Dr. King. After the film, community members will be able to talk with local members of Iraq Veterans Against the War and the Civilian Soldier Alliance and deconstruct the meaning of the speech, as well as put it in a contemporary context in light of our nation's current conflicts in Iraq and Afghanistan.
