Last year we featured a sample from our album “Portraits of Freedom” to pay tribute to Martin Luther King Jr., but we feel that once was not enough. So this year we have created a tribute video for MLK Day, and encourage you to share it with others as a way to remind them what today is all about.
Though this work and narration is about Abraham Lincoln, we find the words in this segment, as narrated by James Earl Jones, hold true to the same sentiments that were embodied by Martin Luther King Jr. We offer this sample and the words of Amelia Haygood as she reflected on the recording (released in 1994) as a tribute to honor today’s holiday – Martin Luther King Jr. Day.
To read Amelia’s words, please visit the post we did a year ago.
