In today&#8217;s excerpt, King talks about the concept of nonviolence.<\/p>\n<p>Acclaimed veteran African American journalist and talk show host Tony Brown will present the Martin Luther King Commemorative Presentation on Monday, Jan. 19. The program, which is free to the public, will be from noon to 1 p.m. in the Storz Pavilion, lower level of Clarkson Hospital. There will be free refreshments available for the first 300 people. Overflow audience members will be able to see a live video simulcast in the Wittson Hall Amphitheater.<\/p>\n<p>In 1963, Brown was coordinator of a march King led in Detroit, Mich. The march, which drew 500,000 participants, was the largest civil rights march in U.S. history and the first time King delivered his &#8220;I Have A Dream&#8221; speech. Forty years later, Brown has created a video documentary reflecting his relationship with King and the lessons learned. &#8220;Tony Brown&#8217;s TV Essay on Martin Luther King (A Personal Account)&#8221; is being aired nationally, Jan. 16-22, on the PBS network, as well as DirecTV and Dish Network. It will not be aired locally on NETV, however, excerpts will be screened in the Storz Pavilion before the MLK Day program begins. Complete transcripts of the video documentary are available via e-mail at mail@tbol.net.<\/p>\n<hr>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.unmc.edu\/newsroom\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/mlkghetto.gif\" border=\"2\" align=\"right\" alt=\"picture disc.\">&#8220;I met these boys and heard their stories in discussions we had on some long, cold nights last winter at the slum apartment I rent in the West Side ghetto of Chicago. I was shocked at the venom they poured out against the world. At times I shared their despair and felt a hopelessness that these young Americans could ever embrace the concept of nonviolence as the effective and powerful instrument of social reform. I don&#8217;t march because I like it. I march because I must, and because I&#8217;m a man.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p><i>Martin Luther King on Leadership: Inspiration &#038; Wisdom for Challenging Times,<br \/>\nDonald T.
