After Joan Baez, her mother, and Ira Sandperl were incarcerated at Santa Rita prison in California after an anti-war demonstration at the Oakland induction center, Martin Luther King, Jr. came to Santa Rita and spoke first to the imprisoned activists and then the supporters and activists outside. This is a recording of the public speech recorded on January 14, 1968. King delivers a speech, explains his support of the anti-war activists, and takes questions from the press. Dr. King is introduced to activist David Harris towards the end of the recording. There is an excerpt of a conversation between Colin Edwards and Paul Obluda, staff member of the War Resisters League. Produced by Colin Edwards.
