In this special episode of the Teachers Forum, David is joined by Emmy-nominated producer and anti-racist educator Ernest Crim III to honor the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. on his 97th birthday. Together, they delve into the complexities of King's later years, exploring his evolving views on economic justice, non-violence, and the ongoing struggle for civil rights.
