New Podcast Posting: Recalling the Life and Death of MLK Forty Years Later at the Lorraine Motel

On April 4, 1968 Martin Luther King was killed at the Lorriane Motel in Memphis. The site, preserved as it was then on the exterio,r has been transformed inside. It is now the National Civil Rights Museum.

In this Conversation on the Road podcast, Allison Fouche of the Museum speaks with us about this special day at the Museum. She also provides some context for the observance - describing what happened at the site after the King Assassination and after all the pain what the site has come to represent.
