The Youth, The March, The Movement | MLK Jr. March on Frankfort

Martin Luther King Jr. was the featured speaker at a March on Frankfort, Kentucky, in 1964, where an estimated 10,000 people gathered in a peaceful protest for civil rights. In 2022, researchers Joanna Hay and Le Datta Grimes, Ph.D., recorded interviews with 10 people who participated in that march as teens or young adults. Interviewees in this video recall their work with the civil rights movement, including sit-ins and their training in nonviolent protest.
