FULL FILM: A Reading of the Letter from Birmingham Jail
FOR THE FIRST TIME IN HISTORY a non-fiction film commemorating Martin Luther King, Jr.‘s famous “Letter from Birmingham Jail.” No longer will the Letter from Birmingham Jail be in the SHADOW of the I Have a Dream speech.
The film stars community leaders of Columbus, Ohio and educators and leaders of The Ohio State University. The Letter from Birmingham Jail is an open letter written on April 16, 1963, by Martin Luther King, Jr. The letter defends the strategy of nonviolent resistance to racial discrimination, arguing that people have a moral responsibility to break unjust laws. After an early setback, it enjoyed widespread publication and became a key text for the American civil rights movement of the early 1960s.

Segregation in the 1950s-1960s
In my interview conducted with Mrs Hunt, she gives us a more calmer outlook on segregation within the community in south Baltimore. She explains that even with the assassination of Dr Martin Luther King that spark the riots back in the 60s, she felt like it was more of a built up frustration within the black community.

STORYLINE
Hundreds of people gathered on Monday in Birmingham, Alabama to sing protest anthems and march against the acquittal of George Zimmerman in the fatal shooting of an unarmed black teenager continued.
They gathered at the same site where civil right demonstrations were held 50 years ago.
Protesters chanted no justice, no peace and made plans for more rallies against the acquittal of Zimmerman, a US neighbourhood watch volunteer who shot dead 17-year-old Trayvon Martin but was found not guilty of second-degree murder
Zimmerman claimed the shooting last year was in self defence.
Wanda Erskine, a civil rights activist who pastors a small church, said the verdict was particularly heart-wrenching to her because her own son was killed seven years ago in a shooting in which no one has been prosecuted.
I know how the mother feels, said Erskine.
Marlon Wright, 32-years-old, of Birmingham said he fears the verdict will make it easier for authorities to racially profile black men without consequence.
As a young black man growing up in Birmingham... I have been subjected to racial profiling, Wright said.
The rally, promoted by civil rights groups and pastors following Zimmerman's acquittal on Saturday, was held in the same area where authorities used police dogs and fire hoses on young people marching for civil rights in then-segregated Birmingham in 1963.
The crowd marched peacefully along downtown streets on Monday, singing civil rights hymns and chanting as police looked on.
While jurors in Florida believed Zimmerman's defence that he acted in self-defence, Erskine doesn't.

ON FREEDOM AND REVOLT: A COMPARATIVE INVESTIGATION by Carl E. Moyler
ON FREEDOM AND REVOLT: A COMPARATIVE INVESTIGATION by Carl E. Moyler
This book is dedicated to all those heroes and heroines who have seen and will see life as a daring adventure to be given in the name of service to humanity, to justice and to freedom. We know a few of them, but many others are lost among the nameless crowd. Albert Camus and Martin Luther King Jr are two first class role models who lived out their passions for justice and freedom. Today, they are among the heroes who are well remembered around the world.
The following words seem appropriate to reflect what they stood for: For all who have sought to make a difference in the lives of men by their service and life, and to lighten the dark places of the earth (Source: inscription on the wall of the Civil Rights Museum, 16th street, Birmingham, Alabama, USA) (Author unknown). Camus and King were born, reared and lived as personal witnesses to the political, economical and social ravages of their time and place. Neither man was willing to stand in the presence of tyranny, oppression, racism, exploitation, murder, war and do nothing. Therefore their response, based on their calling, was a revolt for freedom.
Camus was the moral conscience of thousands of people, young and old, in Europe, the United states, and other places. He was able to impart to generations past and present a vision of hope and courage that gave optimism to doubt and uncertainty. Likewise, Dr. King in his nonviolent American civil rights struggle has left a message for present and future times a philosophy of militant nonviolent revolt in the face of overwhelming nullification against himself and his followers that is infused with hope, justice and love.
Comparing the writings of these two Nobel Laureates and international hero-scholars is put forth here as a contribution to the never ending quest for a more just, humane and rational world where we coexist in a civilized society in pursuit of being My brother's keeper.
Carl E. Moyler was born in Newport News, Virginia – one of eight children. He currently resides in Dayton, Ohio. He was a graduate of West Virginia State University in 1954 majoring in foreign languages. He holds a master’s degree in French from Case Western Reserve, Cleveland, Ohio, an Educational Specialist degree from the University of Dayton and a Ph.D. from the Union Institute/University, Cincinnati, Ohio. He has been a high school teacher and principal as well as a university professor and administrator. He is also the founder and CEO of small business, The Don Pablo Academy for all subjects, tutoring elementary through college.
Dr. Moyler has also authored three other books, one of them unpublished: Teacher Manual for Foreign Language Teaching; The Successful Student Handbook; and 8 Stories Children's Literature.

Street Dedication Honors Civil Rights Foot Soldier
Norman Wooding Junior is known for his good works in Birmingham’s Powderly community. The 91 year old is being immortalized with a street dedication. Wooding is a former Sunday school teacher and deacon at Greater Saint John Missionary Baptist Church. He's been a member since 1932. Wooding also spent decades hosting the gospel hour radio show on WJLD. The new street sign in his honor is located at 2100 Francis Avenue SouthWest. District seven President Pro Tem Jay Roberson says Wooding's bravery goes beyond the Powderly neighborhood. Wooding served our country in World War II and the civil rights movement volunteering as a driver for Reverend Fred Shuttlesworth.
