... Resurrect Memories.
The Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr., died before seeing his dream of a nationwide, multicultural Poor People's Campaign realized. Despite King's death, the campaign continued on as planned, producing images and sounds that became some of the most emblematic of the tumultuous times of 1968. This weekend, we hear from people who planned and took part in the Poor People's Campaign, which culminated in the construction and subsequent destruction of a shanty town on the National Mall called Resurrection City. This is the first in a series of stories from producers Ann Hepperman and Kara Oehler called "This Weekend in 1968."
