Monday Morning MP3 (Tuesday edition)

The Church on the Frontier of Racial Tension, Martin Luther King, Jr., at Southern Seminary (1961)
In honor of King Day, here's an MP3 from a speech 32-year-old Dr. King gave at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, challenging Southern Baptists and evangelicals of all stripes to embrace racial reconciliation in a post-colonial world, seven years before his assassination.This podcast contains a recording of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. speaking at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary on April 19, 1961. The speech is more remarkable considering the context. Southern Baptists were not unified in their posture toward the Civil Rights movement and in 1961 the outcome was far from certain. In this speech, you will hear Dr. King cast his vision for the church’s role in racial reconciliation.
