While you have hopefully listened to “I Have a Dream” today, Martin Luther King Jr has many other great speeches which should not be overlooked. This sermon, recorded at the Ebenezer Baptist Church on April 30, 1967, entitled “Why I Am Opposed to the War in Vietnam,” provides a devastating lesson about justice and non-violence that is still relevant today.

He was assassinated less than a year later. In 1970, this speech was released by Black Forum records, a subsidiary of Motown,
and went on to win a Grammy for the Best Spoken Word Recording.
