April 4th marks the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. He was in Memphis, Tennessee, preparing for a second march in support of striking garbage workers. The first march ended in violence. With his reputation of non-violent protest on the line, Dr. King was determined to have a second, peaceful, protest. It was not to be. On the next Another View we'll examine the last 31 hours of Dr. King's life with former Frontline investigative reporter Joseph Rosenbloom, author of "Redemption: Martin Luther King, Jr.'s Last 31 Hours". It's a compelling, researched account of what happened leading up to Dr. King's death, and how Dr. King himself knew deep inside that the end was near.
