Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s historic speeches. One is known as "The Other America" and another is "Three Evils of Society"

His widow, reportedly says this was the real reason why he was assassinated on April 4, 1968, in Memphis, TN

MLK addressed topics like race, poverty, and economic injustices that were, and still are, plaguing American society. In Dr. King's speech, he begins by painting a picture of the two Americas.

A continuing discrepancy exists between the American Dream and the adversity and harsh realities of American life. He argues that the United States has not yet fulfilled its promised vision of freedom and equality for all people.
