Many Roots Podcast 5 - Happy Birthday!

In keeping with this podcast's updated mission, I bring you an episode you can truly learn and dance to.  Martin Luther King, Jr. was born on January 15, 1929.  There is universal agreement that Dr. King's dream led to significant improvements in U.S. civil rights.  Nevertheless, the jury remains out on how much things have really improved for persons of color and other marginalized peoples.

I certainly don't know the answer, and I'm not sure a definitive one exists.  This podcast makes space for a variety of voices from the U.S., South Africa and Jamaica to make their arguments, and includes a double dose of Stevie Wonder, whose song "Happy Birthday" was instrumental in the creation of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday in the U.S.
