YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

In this scene from Season 2, Episode 8 of The MLK Project, Chad O. Jackson and Chuck Littleton examine the little-discussed question of Martin Luther King Jr.’s political ambitions, including the proposed King-Spock ticket and the role of the National Conference for New Politics.

Drawing on commentary, historical footage, and testimony from William Pepper, this segment revisits the political maneuvering surrounding a possible third-party presidential effort in 1968, and the convention struggle that helped bring it to an end.

This is a scene from The MLK Project, a documentary series by Chad O. Jackson.
