There's a "Listener Tribute to Martin Luther King, Jr." from WYNC's "The Brian Lehrer Show"
For Martin Luther King Day, it’s their annual one-minute readings about any ethnic group other than one's own. It's a unique way to pay tribute to Dr. King with a selection of a poem, a novel--anything at all.
