the rachel maddow show starts right now. good evening, rachel. it was fantastic, chris. and the zinc. well then thanks at-home for joining us this hour. happy to have you here. in april 1960, in memphis, tennessee, the reverent dr. martin luther king the man who killed him was james earl ray, seen here in handcuffs. james earl ray was a rabid segregationist. he was a real racist. he was kicked out of the army in the late 40s. he d been in and out of prison for years. he d actually escaped from prison in missouri, in 1967, the year before he killed king. he spent time in mexico. spent time in california. by 1968, he was reportedly intoxicated with the reactionary campaign of george wallace, the segregationist alabama governor, who ran for president in 1968 on an anti-civil rights,
it s how edward jones makes sense of investing. this thing battered its way for a few seconds through the waves. legend has it there s something lurking in the murky waters of scotland. whatever it was was just underneath the surface, it was pretty big and it was shifting. and that legend has been kept alive largely by one mysterious piece of film shot more than half a century ago. my father took a film in 1960 of some object in loch ness. and that pretty much changed his life. changed my life. april 1960.
