This is a mini-documentary/exploration of JFK’s relationship with Martin Luther King Jr. and the Civil Rights Movement. MLK’s most famous speech, “I Have a Dream”, wouldn’t have occurred had JFK had his way. Although a supporter of the Civil Rights Movement, John F. Kennedy wasn’t a natural leader on Civil Rights, and this video explores the complications of his leadership on the issue.
