MLK and LBJ continued

Gene Seymour has come up with an excerpt from a PBS documentary that provides additional insight into the relationship between Martin Luther King and LBJ:

Gene Seymour - Perhaps no other president in the past century poses a more rigorous & at times exasperating exercise of F. Scott Fitzgerald's dictum of being able to carry two opposing ideas and retain the ability to function. Here is a segment from the still-valuable and admirably judicious 1994 PBS documentary that best serves as a kind of hypertext to "Selma."
