Michael Eric Dyson and Owen Ullman talked about changes in America since the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom, and they responded to viewer phone calls and electronic communications. Mr. Ullman shared his memories of being at the march, and Professor Dyson talked about the march from a historical perspective. Topics included the origins of Martin Luther King’s “I Have a Dream” speech, security at the march, and the different types of people who attended. Clips were shown of a speech Dr. King made in Detroit in June 1963, and an interview with civil rights advocate Joyce Lander, who talked about her experience at the march.

Bobbi Jackson gave a news update on C-SPAN Radio at the end of the program. close
