In a Black History Month special, Democracy Now!airs excerpts of a rarely seen Oscar-nominated documentary about Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. and the rise of the civil rights movement.
Produced by Ely Landau, King: A Filmed Record...Montgomery to Memphis is made from original newsreel footage and other original video footage shot of marches, rallies, and church services.
King was originally screened for one-night-only in 1970 in more than 600 theaters across the United States. It has rarely been seen since. Here is extensive footage from the film, featuring a historic look at the 8-year period that led up to the 1963 March on Washington, D.C.
