I love how the hosts are constantly fidging around in their seats, while Dr King just sits there, calmly explaining. He just oozes confidence, charisma and leadership.
@@jakobgenovese1626 The clumsy US intervention (after France made it clear in the early 1960s that they were going to withdraw and no longer fight to defend their pro-capitalist puppet regime and tiny rich ruling class that had established itself there while Vietnam was a French colony) in the ongoing class based civil war / socialist revolution that was occurring in Vietnam can be explained by the US policy of “Containment”. The US so feared Communism and the the so-called “domino theory” of communist nations producing more communist nations like falling dominos the historian and amabassador George Kennan proposed the Containment theory in the late 1940s as a way of protecting US interests (which they always identified with open trade access to capitalists) anywhere in the world. So over the course of the next two decades Containment became the main foreign policy concept with respect to any kind of socialist activities in any foreign country. It needed to be fought and defeated if possible. If this was not possible the the influence of socialism needed to be contained as much as possible by any means necessary. This was always easier to do without generating too much sympathy in the US in Asia where the people being killed weren’t white Europeans… which is why the US tended to take a different, more clandestine approach to destroying socialism (even governments that had been democratically elected) in Central and South America, where many of the people involved wouldn’t look good being killed by US soldiers rifles in direct armed conflict unless they could be somehow tied to drug dealing or terrorism in some circuitous way. The entire project was a global goal to slow down the spread of egalitarianism, true democracy (not just democracy only for the ruling class wealthy and powerful), and socialism around the world. So that capitalist values that produce hierarchies of rich and powerful and loads of disempowered exploited working classes) could remain the dominant ideology around the world.
History books tend to distill the character of historical figures into single elements: all bad, all good, all anger, all peace, all saint, all sinner. We have reduced MLK into the essence of one speech, “I Have a Dream,” and as magnificent a piece of rhetoric as it was, that speech wasn’t ALL he was, said, wrote, or did.
Carlos Burge The reason his message still resonates is because America still has not learned from its past mistakes. We still prioritize military spending and unnecessary wars over education, healthcare, etc for people here in the States.
Get a library card, read some high end literature, read well written newspaper and magazine articles. Go to a college with tough academic standards, and take the most challenging courses you can find. If you do all that, then you'll be able to express your thoughts as articulately as MLK. Turn off your TV set, put away your cell phone, and shut off your computer. Spend a few hours each day reading, without any of those distractions.
Julian James & just think..he passed away at age "39". He carried himself as a much older man. Very intelligent & knowledgeable! I'm 41 yrs old..& I have great admiration for Dr. King!
D3vilsheep 65 I bet you are a right-wing individual who thinks he knows more about King, his political framework, cultural traditions, and his people than the people themselves. Because actually, King would be proud, though not yet satisfied, of the strides made by black Americans. He would also insist now, as he did then, that the social structures in place today still need to be dealt with seriously, and sincerely. Something many white Americans were reluctant to do then, as they are now. Contrary to the egregious assertion you put forth, he would roll his eyes at people like you who rip words from his mouth and thoughts from his head in order to justify your own resentment for the very people he identified with. To use his language, you need to be true to what HE said on paper, which you clearly haven't read.
What a man!!!...so calm, so wise, and such a God-fearing individual. He must have been a brave man (Bravery doesn't mean you are not scared.) to stand up for a cause despite the increased opposition from whites and Blacks alike.
When you look at it, what did everyone expect MLK to say on Vietnam? He's a minister who advocates the preservation of life, not the violent end of it especially for political and ideological motives such at the Cold War.
Exactly and I learned in college that Mexican-Americans as well as blacks were dying in disproportionate numbers. We didn't make up a lot of the population then, but yet we had a lot of our people serving and dying.
Victoria Garcia I understand your point. However, anybody who died in Vietnam for the reasons they did was 1 too many despite what their ethnic or racial background consisted of.
It wasn't an opinion it was a fact stated. It was one of the reasons why the black civil rights and Chicano civil rights leaders we're against the Vietnam War. I totally believe anyone lost was one too many.
martin king jr was a PERVERT a THIEF a CHEAT On Jan. 31, 1977, Martin Luther King's FBI records were sealed by court order until the year 2027 because, as his wife said, "its release would destroy his reputation" These records contain instances of bizarre sexual perversion and homosexuality. Martin Luther King frequently enjoyed prostitutes and paid for them with his church's money that he stole. The Wall Street Journal (Nov.9, 1990) disclosed that Stanford University editors of “ The Papers of Martin Luther King Jr. “ have long known that King was guilty of plagiarism in his l955 Boston University doctoral thesis, having lifted significant portions from the works of other writers and graduate students. He wasn’t intelligent enough to do it on his own.
@@richjones7078 All these were fabricated lies from a federal bureau that sought to destroy any "black messiah". Don't neglect the ability of critical thinking.
I admire Mr. Martin Luther King so very much. He was such a wise and calm soul. An inspiration for moral conduct, then and now. A great speaker and preacher. A force of power and peace. God bless and keep your soul forever Mr. King
This is the MLK that's erased in today's sanitized commercialized celebrations. He was deeply radical - on economic issues and deeply anti-imperialist. That truth about MLK is too uncomfortable for people today. Just a fantastic interview.
First time I ever heard Dr King speak. I've read about him, I did a history essay about him once, and I've heard people talk about him, but I've never ever heard a recording nor seen footage of him. He seems like a really wise man, wish I could've met him.
Dr. Martin Luther King, with his strong capacity to think, so closely emulated Jesus in this interview. As Jesus outwitted the pharisees and sadducees, Martin Luther King does the same to those who were trying to trap him. One of the greatest intellects of the 20th century. Our Black Moses.
It is just deeply astounding, his courage and commitment to Truth and Justice and Peace, in the midst of such strong forces pushing for he opposite. He was truly tuned in to something so deep and true. How lucky the world is to have had such a fearless and sane and articulate and truth-speaking leader. May our Martin Luther Kings of today stand up and rise, with God's courage filling our hearts. Doing what is just and good despite fear.
They pretended to be "curteous" as they launched a predetermined assault to try and discredit his stance (not realizing they themselves were the misguided ones) - problem was he was smarter than both of them put together and his composure was impeccable. #Greatness
This is great... He is great, a pillar as to what we are missing in the nation, and the epitome of fear in the governments heart. A leader who can actually gather the people and push towards a goal, or lead them to a destination. The people are divided which makes us that much easier to control. They tried to catch him slipping but he owned them. Gold
I saw this video of Dr. King several years ago and witnessed one of the most intelligent, visionary, and wise human being to walk the planet Earth. Gratefully to live in his legacy and the positive human impact he made to the world.
I haven’t seen this interview in a long time; I can easily remember why even as a child I admired Dr. King. Such levelheadedness and ease of delivery. Oh that the young men of this generation were to emulate his reservation and quiet dignity.
Dr. King is untouchable. "Can't touch that". A sense of great pride rises up in me just hearing him speak. So deserving of the Nobel Peace Prize. A prophet of the Lord God. Amen.
All this BREAKS my HEART we r all equel in JESUS CHRIST eye's . I'm so grateful my mother didn't raise us up in ignorance but LOVE!! My family is mixed & l love it😍😍😍!!
just this bit of listening to Martin Luther King he was wise & always tried to do the right thing & he would definetly would not approve of What Obama & Al Sharpton are doing today, we need more Martin Luther Kings
One of the many things I admire about Dr. King is his incredible ability to be passionate about causes while still maintaining enough calm to reason with people and clearly express himself. He demonstrates how to disagree and also show dignity and respect towards others. May all beings learn to respect each other. 💜💜💜
It was a very beautiful thing to see your comment as it brought tears to my eyes. I am a 35 year old Black male who never had a chance to meet the man, but I love him dearly. I admire him so much. It is very nice to know that you feel that way. Very nice. He must have really been, besides a Black man, an awesome human being. I say this in tears at this very moment. Thank you.
I am speechless at the ease with which he turned their traps into open cages, and instead of rage a thousands laughing doves emerged. so, of course, they could not corrupt him, they could not entrap him, the only thing they could do is what they did, is what they always do ... but truth resonates within, isn't that right Dr King? thank you for these recordings!
Such a pivotal moment in time with listening to "wisdom" to seek justice in negotiations of betterment in social ambition in America!" Psalms 133 Peace is an antidote to hatred, division and discourse among humanity!
While Dr. Martin L King was indeed a masterful orator He also handled his adversaries very handily when it came to interviews or debating Dr. King no one succeeded against him.
sending LOVE and Respect to Martin Luther King Jr and his sweet wife!...what an amazing and beautiful guy he is!.....does anyone know if she is still alive today in 2014? I know he was killed to shut him up....yet they did not succeed to shut him up....they only made him and his message more powerful! Martin Luther King will always be one of my heroes FOREVER! 💕💖💕

SentioBonus he was right but he also got himself killed because he spoke to loudly about it. Why did we go to vetnam in the first place.

Dumb bitch. Everything he said he took from someone else. He was a plagiarist.
whip master who you calling a dumb bitch 😕
whip master you know nothing
You know, the history books never do quite capture the eloquence and true mastery of the English language that Dr. King possessed.
i agree
Yes because racism is still alive and well 2019!
It's true. I agreed with this statement. Most US historians who write books are white. They totally ignore this part.
Unparalleled. Unrivaled. Inimitable.

@@kyledavis4202 debatable. There's also a severe problem with individual accountability now as well.
MLK was not a Christian.
"our loyalty to the country shouldn't be measured by our to kill, but the ability to lead nation to the higher height of democracy for humanity."
he speaks so well......i wish i could express my thoughts and feelings so articulately.
he is amazing!...someone who had TRUE POWER! and his gift of love and compassion... is still doing good things today

I think the same thing.
It's amazing that anyone could be this intelligent & knowledgeable ...before even reaching age 40.
Anyone studying rhetoric should seriously watch these videos. King was a genius in the art of persuasion.
His calm and courage in those times are heroic qualities.
Dr King was formidably smart...

andy Nutt amazing. Tv hosts used to not interrupt their interviewees incessantly like they do on network news these days.
andy Nutt thats what being black feels like everyday for no reason
So intelligent, so eloquent, so prepared. It's encouraging for those with open hearts & minds, scary for those with closed ones.
