Amongst a few very interesting pickups today, this one stands out. It is a 1962(i think) 45 of Martin Luther King Jr's speech 'The Negro Dilema: The Old & New Slavery - The Challenge - Dignity and Self Respect' b/w 'Excellence: A Good Job - The Street Sweeper - Be The Best'. From what i've been able to find online, this appears to be a series of sermons/speeches delivered to the Zion Hill Baptist church in Los Angeles around 1962 and produced by the non-profit Public Information Communications Association out of Compton, CA. I just listened to both sides. Seven years deep in the civil rights struggle, you can hear the determination in his voice.
