Paul Bermanzohn Presents “King Was a Revolutionary” | January 18
At 4pm on January 18, Dr. Paul Bermanzohn will host “King Was a Revolutionary,” a Zoom talk sponsored by the Library at the A.J. Williams-Myers African Roots Center in Kingston. The presentation discusses two of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s most famous speeches: his celebrated “I Have a Dream” speech and “Beyond Vietnam: A Time to Break Silence,” an anti-Vietnam War and pro-social justice speech. Bermanzohn, a Poughkeepsie psychiatrist, is a survivor of the 1979 Greensboro, North Carolina, attack on civil rights marchers by Ku Klux Klan and Nazi assailants that left five dead. The talk is free, but registration is required.
