A Time to Break the Silence - Rev Dr Martin Luther King, Jr

You Tube Poster:

In full disclosure this is a video edit of a larger speech. Also, there is a few minutes from a sermon by Dr King on the same topic, speaking out against the war in Vietnam. In total, the sermon and the speech total nearly an hour so obviously the 5 min clip is paired down (although much of the two talks mirror each other verbatim). Of note, the only parts that were removed were those that he specifically references Vietnam (i.e. the parts with details that would pertain only to that era). That being said, it is still eerie to see how his words could be given today. If you want to hear the full, unedited version simply search for "A Time to Break Silence" and/or "Beyond Vietnam" and you will be able to find the clips in their entirety. The best part is how he sites his love for the troops while voicing descent. God bless and hope you enjoy.
